I went to a Starbucks once around 10 years ago. Way overpriced and tasted like something they filtered through Earl Campbell’s dirty socks.

Never went back. No Dunkin Donuts around here, if they were I’d be a regular. Worked there in hte 70’s, my mother ran one. At that time coffee was about a buck a pound, Dunkin was paying $4 for theirs. Best coffee in town. I Had strict instructions from the boss (yeah my mother) to NEVER let it sit more than 18 minutes, even if I had to pour out a full pot, brew another and throw it out.

After 18 minutes coffee starts to evaporate and gets bitter, and we had a reputation for the best coffee in the Houston area. I probably made 30 pots of coffee every morning starting about 4AM, I was amazed how many people came in to have thermos bottles filled. And paid well for it...I’d pour myself a cup if I wanted some, pour the rest down the drain and make another. From 4 to 7 AM I kept 4 pots going at all times. Never had to pour one out, only in the wee hours around 2 to 3 when nobody was around and I was busy filling and glazing fresh donuts. At about 4 I had to be finished, I’d be at the counter till 7 nonstop...
