I get so upset when people try to dump out the old coffee. SAVE it for MEEEE. I am gross and have no taste, and prefer any coffee that is not hot. Obviously iced and cold brew are slightly better than day old, but I will drink the hell out of that shit.

The science here made me finally understand (a little) why people are so grossed out that I insist they save me the old coffee.

Pease porridge hot, pease porridge cold,
Pease porridge in the pot, nine days old;
Some like it hot, some like it cold,
Some like it in the pot, nine days old.

This is my theme song when it comes to coffee.
