Hammonasset State ParkMaking Coffee
By Al Miller
My first job I had while working out on the counter was to make the coffee. There were two 50 gallon urns to be filled. Somebody told me what to do and how to make the coffee, so I did it the way they said to do it.
When the coffee was finally made I took the first cup in to the boss and asked him to try it.
He took one sip and said, "I want you to go out and dump the whole 50 gallons out and make it right.
So I asked him what was wrong with it, and he told me I didn't put any salt in it.
"Now , you will put a dash of salt in it when you make it.
