Salt. I added salt. I had a friend in the Navy once and he told me that a
little salt made better coffee. So I took his advice to the extreme. With
LOTS more grounds than was needed.
I smiled and explained that I always ground my coffee so I didn't know how
to do it this way. Then I told me Navy friend story. And smiled.
Never asked to make coffee again. The funniest part was the person who asked
knew I knew how to make coffee. The point was made.
Always do stupid tasks badly with a smile. You will not be asked again.
