As I was taught in the US Navy, there are five grades of coffee:

Day one - freshly made coffee;

Day two - java;

Day three - joe;

Day four - jamoke;

Day five - carbon remover...

Coffee must be black as death,
Hot as hell,
And sweet as love... ~Turkish proverb

Some times I miss NAVY coffee, especially the stuff at the end of the day that you could almost stand a spoon up in. It's also the only thing I've ever had that can cover up the taste of JP5 (jet fuel for you civvies).

I remember deathly silence as my parents watched
the coffee pot percolating on the stove.

I thought it must be magic, because as soon as
they drank a cup they would begin to talk.

When I grew up and finally tasted it, I was
sorely disappointed and nothing magical
happened at all :-(

It is an acquired taste but one I don't think I could get up in the morning without so for me it does work magic :)

My parents would drink TWO twelve cup pots of coffee every day except Sunday. My dad, age 80, still drinks half a pot every day.

While in the service I could not get enough. Nowadays, I only drink 2-3 cups when dining out with my date.
