A manufacturer of high-end coffee machines claims that using their specific brand of paper filters results in a better-tasting cup of coffee. They point to a blind taste test where seventy percent of participants preferred coffee brewed with their brand's filters over coffee brewed with a competitor's brand.
Which one of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the manufacturer's claim?
- The coffee brewed with the manufacturer's filters used premium beans, while the competitor's coffee used a standard, lower-cost blend.
- The competitor's paper filters are currently stocked and sold in far more retail and grocery locations than the manufacturer's filters.
- The manufacturer's paper filters are, by every available measure, the most environmentally friendly coffee filters ever produced anywhere.
- Many of the participants in the blind taste test said that they personally drink brewed coffee at least three separate times each day.
- The coffee brewed with the manufacturer's filters was served in slightly more elegant porcelain cups than the competitor's coffee was.
