Something to keep in mind if you aren't careful about how you handle it when you eventually remove your coffee from the microwave.

It's actually pretty hot.
It is kinda cool if you can set up a way to do it safely. Not recommending it by any means but the effect does still work with plain water which makes post-experiment cleanup easier.
There's a Mythbusters video on the subject (timestamped for the explosion but it's a short one anyway) if you want to see what happens from the safety of your web browser.
