The only way to reproduce the store-brewed coffee is to go to a restaurant supply dealer and buy a Bunn-O-Matic brew system with the glass pots and have it professionally installed with it's own water supply. Anything short of that is a cheap imitation.
As far as salt, SixAlpha, never heard of that and quite frankly - eeewww!
My grandfather used to put an eggshell from the previous day's breakfast into his percolator and swore it took the bitterness away but of course back then the salmonella police wouldn't visit your house for doing something like that.
