That is why you put the salt in the coffee grounds. :p:D

I did make the coffee with egg shells this morning AND a wee, itty, bitty pinch of salt. :laughing: The eggs shells did not change the taste at all.

Duh, that makes sense:laughing: I didn't even think of it that way, I was assuming adding it like some one adds sugar to it.

And the salt made it sweeter!:D:D:laughing:

Duh! NO! :D It is the SUGAR I put into the grounds that made the coffee sweeter! :laughing: Yesterdays coffee grounds had salt, sugar, egg shell, oh yeah, coffee. :D

The salt does somehow mellow out the coffee. I don't understand the chemistry but it does work. If I took a minute or two I could count the number of salt grains in the coffee. It does not take much.

Dan....Did you use large or small egg shells ? Were they brown , white or some other color ? My Mother in Law always used fresh egg shells from our own Chickens...Did you crush them up or just put in big pieces of the shell ? :laughing:

Just big pieces of shell from white Egg Land Best eggs. I guess if the eggs where from free range chickens the coffee would have tasted better. :D:laughing:

The shells did settle into the grounds. :) So I could see the egg shells keeping the coffee grounds at the bottom of the pot that was on the burner.

You were teasing? Ah, now you tell me! I have been crying in my beer all afternoon. :D:laughing::D:laughing: :drink:
The egg shells did not make a difference in my coffee but figure I would give it a try. I heard about the salt a year or so ago and tried it. The salt did make a difference so I keep a little bowl of Kosher salt next to the coffee maker. :D

If the eggs worked, I am not sure what I would have done. Keeping broken chicken eggs sounds a bit weird to me. :laughing:
