CPCP (Coffee Pot Control Protocol) Related Entries Web Links New/Updated Information Note: Many topics at this site are reduced versions of the text in "The Encyclopedia of Networking and Telecommunications." Search results will not be as extensive as a search of the book's CD-ROM. CPCP describes how to connect your coffee pot to the Internet. Hurry and get your network cable connected to the kitchen. No provisions are given for decaffeinated coffee, but who cares. The "tongue-in-cheek" protocol is described in RFC 2324 (Coffee Pot Protocol, April 1998). As the RFC mentions, future versions of this protocol may include extensions for espresso machines and similar devices. See "Internet Entertainment" for a list of similar humorous RFCs.
