Coffee and headphones

[classic85]

One of my good headphone buds just went into my coffee (I wouldn't have cared if it was my old headphones, but it wasn't...). The coffee had gone cold (I have it with milk and sugar, if that's relevant). It was in for less than two seconds. I unplugged the headphones. What do I do now?

(apart from not keeping my coffee near my headphones again?)

if it was me I would rinse in clean water for the same amount of time and then put them to dry near a dehumidifier, not a source of heat. Dry em out for a couple of days before using them again.

Most use dynamic drivers made of plastics and have copper cables. The liquid bit should do little harm, It is the sugar and the fat and protein in the milk togther with what is in the coffee that could have an effect on electrical conduction.
