I'm not content with coffee unless I can scald my mouth and taste nothing afterwards for half the day, as the good lord intended.

The big brewers are fun. I worked a dead end job and I hated using all the chemicals so I’d brew a pot of scalding water and use it to clean all kinds of shit, especially sugar. The coffee station was always a mess, people are animals, cream and sugar all over, gooey sweetener hardening to concrete. Slap a soaking towel full of hot water on there and let it sit 3 minutes and it all melts away. It’s not just a coffee station. It’s a big mean heat machine and it can turn virgin tap water into Chad Cleaning Water

I know what you’re talking about and I agree. Those big old coffee stations are probably super energy inefficient but that def do keep the coffee hot.

They vibe but they also burn the coffee on the bottom giving the whole coffee a bad bitter taste.

One is a thermos and the other has a heating functions, so yeah?

The newer industrial coffee makers drip directly into insulated pots which are like the worst of both worlds. Even harder to clean and does a worse job of keeping the coffee hot.

The thermo-carafes are meant to be a huge version of that. They get filled directly from even bigger coffee machines. They're actually better but only if you're dealing with a high volume of coffee dispensing.
