Why do you say that? What tests have you done to prove hundreds of
experts and tasters wrong?

Brew in the refrigerator? I doubt the oils would propwrly exract, but
maybe a really crappy bean would be improved.

If you want a really smooth cup of coffee, select the right bean and
brew it properly. Time and temperature count! Start with Kona from
Smithfarms.com Check out LaColumbe for different styles. You may like
Corsica for drip brewing..
