Serious question...
Why is coffee so bad when you heat leftover iced coffee? I've gotta burn it into my brain to stop trying to do this
-spouting while drinking the worst coffee...

If someone gives you a real answer to this, please share it with the world. It's AWFUL tasting and I want to know why, too.

Right? It's just weird
Hot coffee = good
Iced coffee = good
Hot coffee that gets cold and I put ice in it = still good!
Iced coffee that I heat up = The absolute fucking worst
I do not understand it

Nailed it in one. And I get the whole "You made hot coffee, put it over ice, didn't finish so heated it up later" being bad -- it's too much for the poor drink to handle. But a simple A to B should work. I demand answers from Big Coffee about this.

The more I think about it, I'm starting to wonder if there's something wrong with the ice from my coffee place. Maybe the dirty ice isn't noticeable til heated? But after it has all melted and been heated, some nasty dirty ice taste emerges?

Oooh -- maybe! That's a good guess, I think. I've worked in food service before, and not every place was as diligent about their ice machines as they should've been.

Thank you! I'm in the lower half of Central Jersey (So... South Central? Can I claim that?) but I'm in that neck of the woods enough that I'll totally check them out.

I love how we're such a small state but we have so much stuff that every lil cluster of towns is totally self sufficient. Like.. of course there are different parts of "central nj"! Why would we mingle with towns more than a 15 min drive away when everything is right here? 🤣

I felt this in my bones. I WFH and one of the owners lives in your neck of the woods (I'm assuming -- lol), and when we do lunch it's a battle of the highways: Rt 1 or the 195 corridor? (Spoiler: he's the owner, so I cross Rt. 1. But we pretend that I'll win one day.)

Lol! I'm glad you got what I was saying 😍 We're so spoiled by our high density of great businesses in every direction. My kids ask why we don't go to Tejas Joses more often and I'm like "SIGHS... it's like... 20 minutes away in the direction we never drive!"

You're singing the song of my people, CC. "You want to go where? To what town? Why? We can just go to X instead."

I love New Jersey so much. Lol
