Thanks for the A2A.
Original Question: I accidentally spilled coffee on a MacBook Air. Will it be OK?
The answer to this is really simple:
Does it work no worse than it did before you spilled coffee on it? Then there is an extremely high likelihood it is already OK.
Does it freeze or refuse to boot up? Then it is not OK and it will not get better.

Depends what year and how far the coffee travelled. This stuff tends to get inside keyboards and will make that faulty, then it gets into the touch pad and thats icky sticky will prevent actions., worse case scenereo it got into the circuitry of keyboard and or mouse pad and shorted out either or both. Ive repaired many Macbooks by replacing either or both of these items as it may take a lot of liquid to get to the logic board beyond the keyboard and mouse pad. The major issue I see is that your keyboard will become sticky when it dries up and certain keys wont work. Its $20USD for a replacement keyboard (Not from Apple) and a bit of work to replace since there are about 100 mini screws retaining it and Mac requires complete disassembly as the logic board is in the way of keyboard replacement.
