    I can find a couple more who can. They live in some remote village up North. Not telling which Arctic island.

    Colonel speaks better English than the English (and most Americans).

    Well I do know the Ladies Aid ladies put egg in the coffee they made in the great big pots at church, the kind that sat on the stove and boiled. It does seem like they mixed the egg with the grounds. I was from a Sweedish/Norwegian community.

    Well it definitely has more protein and fat than regular coffee. :)

    Scramble the egg then put it on a sandwich then have coffee along with it, much better idea.

    I'm not a coffee drinker but I do recall when I was a kid some folk used to put eggshells in their percolators, apparently its still done today:


    -Eggshells are alkaline, while coffee is acidic. When added to coffee, the egg shells remove much of the bitterness and mellow out the flavor. Egg shells are also used in making campfire coffee – boiling loose grounds in a pot of water – because the shells help keep the grounds in the bottom of the pot. In modern coffee pots you don't need the shells to hold down the grounds, but you can still use them to reduce the acidity in your morning cup.

    Step 1

    Crack one or both eggs into a small dish. The number of eggs you use depends on the size of your coffee pot, how much coffee you are making and how much you want to cut the acidity. One egg is good for a small pot – four servings or less. Two works with four or more servings...

    It sounds like an ancient coffee making technique. I tend to put a little bit of ordinary milk in my coffee to take away the bitterness.

    Definitely my preference. Or just eat the egg without the bread too.
