Chock Full O' Nuts. It's the best. Buy a 5 lb tin, and you're good for the winter.

coffee is for the gays and hippies.

You buy pre made blends? Does that work well for you?

Personally we buy a few different whole beans and make our own house blend. Well we also have some beans that are not blended but those are more specialty.

honestly i'm just getting into coffee so i'm trying anything & everything until i find out what works just right for me

haven't tried to make my own blends or anything... that's round 2

To me blends sort of scared me so I went with my own blends. Was much easier in my mind to just buy a few different bean types and mix and match em.

baddog · 10-05-2008, 12:34 AM

I make my own.

what about those Hawaiian kona beans?

After Shock Media · 10-05-2008, 01:19 AM

Jamaican and Kona beans are good solo performers in my opinion. It is hard to pick out which beans may be good for a personal blend due to taste preference etc. Not to mention no idea how your store does roasting etc. I often will do like a third dark French roast, almost 2/3 Colombian, and the remainder being a supreme something for a breakfast blend. Stuff like that.

Try Illy or Segafredo coffee. Wegmans chains also have some nice blends

. Just last month I bought a pound of African coffee beans at this import store -- it was the smoothest brew I've had in a while.

Starbucks Cafe Estima Blend and they're Yukon blend

I have become addicted to Kona coffee. Best coffee I have ever had.

Antonio · 10-05-2008, 08:44 AM

hmmm, there's Illy and there's bullshit

F-U-Jimmy · 10-05-2008, 10:56 AM

I like Kona which i get shipped direct as its cheaper. Or a local roaster here in San Diego produces Organic Blue Sky a "fair trade" coffee. Im not a fan of bitter French roasts like the over roasted Star-Bucks muck

tASSy · 10-05-2008, 11:04 AM

torrefazione palermo is my favourite! i also like peet's sumatra.
