Good morning.

I have a coffee pot, but the flavour is getting worse every time I use
it. Franly its terrible now. Do you know how I cna repair the coffee
beans so they give the proper flavour again? They didn't last very
long!

Thanks, NT

Buy a nice large tropical or semi-tropical country, Plant your own Coffee
Plantation and hire the locals to tend then, hopefully they do not want
their own government. Have them harvest the coffee beans at the peak of
ripeness, red not green, and have them wash and package the beans for
shipment. Then generate a company to ship the beans, process them through
immigrations and screening procedures, and roast them in your own plant.
Then produce a distribrution system to market under your specific brand
name. This is the only way you will have control over the basic quality of
the beans you personally make coffee with. Of course, due to the fickel
character of the weather patterns you still may have wide variations in
flavour and character due just to the changes in humidity, temperature, etc.
BTW: Have you actually tried just cleaning your coffee pot?? Even running a
couple pots of vinegar will tend to get rid of some of the calsite and
residue or even using CLR a couple of times. Be sure to run a couple of pots
of clean, fresh water through the thing after cleansing it with the other
materials. Or you could just break down and buy another MR.Coffee?? Duh

Never mind.

Bit impractical isn't it?

So will they last for longer that way then?

sure, but you'd expect the beans to work longer than that, even cheap
ones. I mean everything else comes with a years guarantee, but these
beans... I dunno they went downhill in days! I ended up having to put
new beans in :(

sure, but that doesn't affect the beans any. Put em back afterwards,
they're just as bad. Its definitely faulty beans.

Why do that when its clearly the beans that r faulty?

You said it.

Nothing beats using crazy glue to put the coffee bean together again.
The repaired bean is even stronger than the original especially if you
coat the whole bean with a thin layer of the stuff.

Dear me, you guys got no sense of humour. I post saying the coffee
beans stop giving good flavour after theyve been reused a few times...
come on, lol.

I was hoping for some funny replies, not to worry.

We have been a little touchy since the permanent condom scam.

If you go to the following coffee bean site using IE and enter the word
REPAIR in the EDIT/Find search box the word repair puts in an appearance
appears near the bottom. On my machine it disappears again as soon as i
click anything. Maybe they stopped doing them.
