    Coffee brewers that have a hot plate under the carafe will burn and ruin coffee. The best method of keeping coffee fresh is to keep it in a sealed container (like a double walled carafe with a lid)

    Microwaving coffee is actually a pretty decent way to re-heat it, but the taste will depend on how fresh it was kept prior

      Burn and ruin? My god man, it’s veritable caffeine tarmac lining the intestines and pumping that blood like crazy. Taste bud plebs, the lot of them.

        See, I like to actually enjoy myself sometimes, instead of just hating the world

        And part of that enjoyment is good coffee. Fresh, locally roasted coffee, that I grind fresh each morning. I either take it black, or with a splash of milk, depending on my mood

        Drip brewers are perfectly fine, so long as you don’t use the hot plate. But the biggest impact on coffee flavor is the freshness of both the roast and the grind
