Ever since then, the coffee lacked this undefineable "something" that had made it good...

I believe you're thinking of the story about the rice cooker with dead lizards inside.

I have not heard this story before but I'm left wondering, how? Even if a lizard got into my rice cooker I'd spot it when I put rice in. There's not nooks and crannies for things to hide in.

They were underneath with the heating element IIRC.

I guess they don't wash their rice.

Those lizards provide luck, that's different.
