I used to drink a lot of coffee when I worked. Naturally, I cannot avoid talking people as I fetch coffee. To talk about coffee, we need command some terms such as coffee-maker, Mr. Coffee, black coffee and coffee conpanion. Probably, we cannot find these entries in most English dictionaries. However, I did learn a word that we can look up in the dictionary: stale. Stale is the opposite of fresh. Though I like coffee, but I am not really interested in stale coffee. Of course, if we talk about Chinese liquors, it's another story---I don't care how stale they are.
