Sipping Jacket Suffused with a Potion of Enlarge Person

[The Earl of Gray Park]

At the beginning of a dungeon delve, a character wearing a sipping jacket uses a standard action to suffuse a potion of enlarge person into the coat's lining. Then, for the next 24 hours, the character wearing this sipping jacket may, as a swift action, gain the benefits of the potion of enlarge person for 1 round. This could be done for 10 rounds, none of which need to be consecutive.

Is this how these two magic items would interact and function together?

That is correct.

Does the enlarge person effect from the suffused potion happen immediately upon taking the swift action or is there a delay due to the spell enlarge person having a casting time of 1 round?

You can't use a potion of Enlarge Person with a Sipping Jacket.
It is limited to only spells wit a duration measured in rounds, Enlarge Person has a duration measured in minutes.

Thanks, Mathwei. I got so hung up on the duration of the potion being "10 rounds", I forgot the duration of the spell is actually 1 minute per level.

However, I fear an "enterprising" player may argue that minutes can be measured in rounds, therefore the duration of enlarge person can be measured in rounds, making it usable in the sipping jacket

Do you (or anyone else for that matter) know of something somewhere that defines minutes as "minutes" and not something that is "measured in rounds"?

Players who would try that amount of cheesing should just be laughed at.

The spell itself has a line called duration. If that line says minutes/lvl then it's not a valid choice, now if it says rounds/lvl then it is. Anything else just throw a cheesy puff at them and keep going.

an "Enterprising" Player would be wrong. According to the rules, minutes and rounds are two completely different thing. A round lasts 6 seconds, true. But when it comes to the rules for what can and can't work, it doesn't matter.

From the PFSRD: Many durations are measured in rounds, minutes, hours, or other increments.

That means that they are slotted to be measured in "Rounds" or "Minutes" they are a separate thing.

In sipping jacket " If the potion’s duration is measured in rounds," Since the potions duration is NOT measured in rounds, it is measured in minutes. This can't be used.

Thanks, Mathwei and Trippen; you've both provided the information I needed. Thanks again.
