I had a retired Marine Gunner Sargent that worked with me as a field surveyor. He would never drink fresh coffee. What he would do is empty the office coffee pot at the end of the day and place the coffee in the refrigerator and in the morning he would get the day old stuff out and warm it up. I asked him why he did that when there was fresh right there and his answer was that for 25 years he drank coffee from a 5 gallon coffee pot that was last cleaned the day it came out of the box and that coffee pot was at least 30 years old when he first enlisted and it was still there, coffee constantly being made and drank from it, the day he retired. He was use to the strong taste. And he drank it black, no sugar or cream.
This is the very first clue that I may not be a true Plugger. I would NEVER mix old coffee with new and boy does it tick me off when the restaurants do it!

And when it gets week enough, you can use it for a glass cleaner.
