Coffee halp.

[DreamerTheresa]

So, we're bigtime tea and coffee drinkers over here.

I really dig on Mighty Leaf brand teas.

Currently, we drink Starbucks brand coffee.



Though the former certainly falls under the category of "gourmet," the latter... ur... doesn't.



So can anyone point me to some great coffees?


P.S.: Don't mind ordering it off the interweb.

I'm a huge fan of Gloria Jeans (house blend is a sweet bean), but the stuff we get in Aus seems to be of alot better quality than the GJs I had when I was last in the US... We have about 5 different bean flavours in our freezer atm... So so yummy!!!!!

Honestly, I prefer Folgers over Starbuck's. 8 teaspoons to 12 cups. Distilled water, and coffee maker flushed once a month with white vinegar. I do find that the distilled water and maintained coffee maker make a big difference in how coffee tastes.

Starbuck's tastes... burnt. I don't know if it's in how they roast their beans, or the type of coffee they use, but it isn't very good.

Local brand here has some very nice blends!

Find a local family owned roaster....those who roast in house and know what theyre doing. It will be the best cup you'll ever have. I like Ethopian or Cost Rican roasts.

http://www.coffeebeandirect.com Alot of coffee and tea choices..

and if you ever want to get into roasting your own...
http://www.greencoffees.com/ they have a ton of raw unroasted coffee beans to choose from.. If you are into coffee a little home roasting kit would be fun.

http://www.sweetmarias.com/ - information and supplies for roasting your own.

If you ever roast a "Supramania blend" I'll be the first to buy some!!

Go get a cup of pike place... Fresh scooped daily.

Try some of the Organic coffees, they have a smoother taste. Try walking into a starbucks on monday. Thats when there is a new blend comming out. Another Black Apron Exclusive.

Thanks for the suggestions!

For starters, I got a pound each of Hawaiian Kona and Jamaica Blue Mountain from http://www.marltoncoffee.com

Will have to try some of your suggestions once we run out of what I got.
