NEW YORK (UPI) - Coffee brewing is so fraught with old wives' tales that it's a wonder anyone ever produces a really delicious cup of the beverage. But more and more Ameri cans do, says Kenneth W. Bur gess, field research director for The Coffee Brewing Institute, Inc., (CBI). The institute is a non-profit organization support ed by the coffee-growing coun tries of the world. Burgess said 10 field men travel the United States to teach coffee art lo homcmak ers, county extension agents and mass producers such as restaurateurs and Institutional food service directors. "We're always asked 'Should use eggshells to make better coffee?' " said Burgess. The answer is "No," he said in an interview. Ho explained that women dropped eggshells into old-fash ioned enameled colfee pots so that white clinging to the shells would settle floating grounds in boiling colfee. With modern equipment, no such measure is necessary. Other Questions Other frequent questions and Burgess' answers follow: Q. Should I add salt to cof fee? A. Only if you want salty cof fee. U. Should I "season a new men! cotfwpot the way worn m uwd to "season" Iron skil lets, by wiping Instead of washing It the first few times It's used? A. No. This method destroys flavor by letting colfee fats and oils accumulate. Cleaning the pot with harsh materials such as metal scrubbing pads will only aggravate the problem, be cause the metal makes jits in Cook's Tour ' ' . By Jeanne Lesem , .

Use ordinary dishwashing detergents to clean unscrubbed pots after each use, or special commercial coffeepot cleaners daily if you ve already scrubbed the pot with a metal pad. If you haven't, use the commercial cleaner only as oft en as the equipment manufac turer suggests. Q. Why can't I start with hot water lo save time.' A. Because mineral deposits in hot water lines give coffee an off-flavor and artificially softened water coats the grounds so that water doesn't penetrate them properly. Any way, the maximum time saved would be 214 minutes. Superior Colfee Q. Is ono type of coffeepot better than another, or one cof fee superior to others? A. No. Brewing methods and the flavor of varying blends are a matter of personal taste. The CBI recommends fol lowing the manufacturer's di rections for using nutomalie coffee pots, and the Institute's four-step method with non-auto-mntic pots. The method follows: Bring water to a rolling boil before it contacts the coffee; use the proper grind for the proper pot; use the correct proportion of colfee to water 2 level measuring tablespoons of coffee to each 6 fluid ounces (i measuring cup) of water; and time the brewing no more than 3 minutes for find grind, 4 to 6 minutes for drip, and 6 to 8 minutes for percola tor. And finally, don't hold brewed coffee more than one hour. The beverage begins to break down immediately, and becomes in sipid and flavorless after an hour, said Burgess.

Ditterences between Alba and Medford were noted, one being that there are only two the aters, that almost everyone lives in apartments or other buildings without yards or gar dens and that the city is old about 2,000 years and even old er than Rome. Market Day Described He described "market day'" when the city's main street is closed to vehicular traffic and anyone with merchandise for sale arranges it on the side walk or street. The speaker noted that he enjoyed Sunday afternoon in Alba, a time when families of the city go for walks together. The picture which Alba presents is extremely interesting, Mr. Snider said, saying "the sight seemed like a painted backdrop to me." The region in which Alba is situated is known for its fine food and vintage wines, and for truffles, a fungus which grows underground and much prized by gourmets. Mr. Snider, a former Medford mayor, had been invited to Alba to preside at the opening of the truffle festival. Daughter Speaks The former mayor related how his daughter, Mary Ann. had worked at learning enough Italian to translate her father s speech, made in English, and read it for the official cere mony. He said her efforts had been well received but that this led to complications since the Italians then decided she could speak their language.
