That was my intuitive thought too, which would lead us to conclude that it would taste equally bad if I reheated it on a stove (all else being equal). I haven't tested this but for some reason I have a feeling that it would taste worse in a microwave, however I can't see why the microwaves would have any specific effect (other than heating) on the compounds that give coffee it's taste. I also wondered if it was related to the old-wives-tale that twice boiled water makes inferior tea due to a reduction in dissolved Oxygen in the water?
