Tim Hortons coffee
- Thread starter Fred Zed

Fred, the difference is that you clean your coffee maker at home, whereas the one at Timmy's place only gets a courtesy rinse from a pimple-faced drop-out making $6.00 per hour and all the stale timbits he can inhale.
Let the crust in the pot build up for a while and see if it helps.

Years ago, my buddies and I would got to "dead Tim's" - alright, so we were a bit morbid when we were young. There was one clerk who would always ask "Cream in your coffee?" One of my buddies always answered, "Not lately."

Actually, many of the workers are recent immigrants, and are wonderful people, who have dreams of becoming professionals.
Let me say that working at Timmies was very difficult and demanding, at the end of the day you are so tired from standing and serving customers all day. You also have to deal with very rude customers, many who hold the same condescending attitude MuffinMuncher has.
The coffee by the way is a specific blend recipe that Mother Parkers supplies. It's an Arabica bean, though as some have stated, the coffee does get bitter after a while. I think they started with an arabica bean, but have downgraded their coffee quality to a more robusta bean.
Arabica beans are grown at higher elevations on a mountain, robusta beans at lower elevations. The robusta beans are not as good because they get all the leftover water/nutrients from above and do not get as much sunlight.

The brewers they use dispense water at a very high temperature, thus extracting as much caffeine from the grounds as possible; impossible to duplicate with a home brewer. They also use 18% cream as well.
My ex once told me they put MSG in their coffee, but somehow I doubt that.

Fred, you are not adding the secret ingredients:

I always thought the secret ingredient was cocaine.

Knowing Goober that's not the only thing he dips in it.
It does explain why he was walking funny the other day.

I heard the same thing. I don't think you can buy 18% MF cream in the retail stores can you?

Time for the mix-master to experiment. I'll let everyone know when I unlock the secret.
Isn't this cute!!! Fred's trying to turn into a "molly homemaker" 
Next he'll want to know a good recipe for pot roast!
Next he'll want to know a good recipe for pot roast!I find it amazing at just how busy every Tim Horton's is. I start work before six in the morning and the one I frequent has a line up at that time. Haven't drank a regular coffee for over two years although I'm hooked on their Ice Caps.
I think the reason why their coffee is so good is consistency:
they use the best coffee brewers
I've been told they use spring water
the coffee is kept fresh until its used
once made, pots are kept for twenty minutes and then tossed
too bad they downsized their muffins. They're still delicious and fresh and packed with fruit ,, but they're just too damn small
Getting back to the ICE CAPS, they are so good!!!
