You've gotta love this group....we are still nitpicking about mentioning
coffee maker brands.
When I mentioned my cute little 4-cup Mr.Coffee machine, I wasn't
bragging, I was admitting that I used a cheapo machine and expected to
get laughed at for using it. lol

Here's one for you. For about a year, I got tired of the taste of brewed

more of a "sharp" taste vs "muddy" taste of brewed. Brian teased me
about that for a long time.
