Terrible idea. It'll never work. I can't imagine what inspired you to write such rubbish. |

would it be better (or worse) to start with a cold curvy spoon that straightens out in your hot drink? |
|
| |
Yeah, but po, what would you call it? |

My mother always answered that they were spooning in bed. |

There's nickel-titanium wire [link] that re-shapes with heat. You can customize its shape in a low flame.
Your spoon can be straight in hot water, and coil up to hang on a chain as a pendant when cold. |

Is this not the basis of a very simple, very slow, automatic drink-stirrer. As it heats up, it bends and moves the drink around one way. As it starts to cool, it unbends and moves the drink around the other way. |

Of course, to make this in any way effective would require a very sensitive bimetallic strip, which would mean it would probably be next to impossible to place in your cup. |
