Improve Burnt Coffee

We all know that burnt coffee tastes terrible, but you might want to reconsider before you toss the whole pot out! Why? Because salt can help! Simply sprinkle a little salt in the mug and see if it makes your coffee taste better.
When you put salt into the coffee, it actually neutralizes the bitterness by blocking the taste buds responsible for it. Just don’t go overboard — anything more than a pinch will make the coffee undrinkable! If you’re crunched for time or running low on coffee grounds, this trick can be a morning-saver.
