My dad talked about the Air Force flight line coffee maker that was on 24-7-365 at Maxwell AFB in Alabama. He said crews were coming in and leaving on missions and they all ran on coffee. The pot had not been scrubbed down and cleaned in years, and made great coffee.

Then they got a new Airman on his first assignment. He was trying to make a good impression, so he disassembled the coffee maker, and cleaned it with several cleaning products, and made a new batch of coffee. All the pilots and crew came in expecting the same coffee as before and it tasted like cleaning products. That airman was soon transferred to Minot, ND in winter.

Dad said it took a week for it to get seasoned enough to be drinkable again.

One of our local PCA members is a retired cop. He drinks coffee, black and keep it coming and says he has had some really awful coffee when he was a cop.
