I have a Black & Decker Brew 'n Go that makes up to a 20 ounce cup
of coffee that I use every morning. I add the powdered creamer and
artificial sweetener to the cup and the coffee drips into it. About
10 years ago I made my usual cup one morning and noticed that 'coffee'
looked awfully milky. Sure enough, there sat the fresh ground coffee
I had forgotten to add to the brewer. Toss that and start again.

Several weeks ago I repeated this episode. I thought I had learned
my lesson years ago.
