What coffee do you buy?

[PHAW Webmistress]

I prefer 100% arabica beans (also known as Hawaiin blend )- much smoother and less bitter. Maxwell House now makes it

But if Folgers is on sale - I stock up on that too

I have Cafe Du Monde in my cabinet, however, I usually go Dunkin Donuts and get a French Vanilla, milk and sugar. Anyone try the Eggnog Latte from Starbucks? I have been enjoying it very much this holiday season.

I like my coffee strong. I brew a mug of espresso every morning, yeah the big mug and I don't water it down with cream or sugar. I use Starbuck$$ Verona blend when I brew. For a change of pace I'll buy the Sumatra.

Some very good regular coffees

Alto Grande - Puerto Rican Coffee it is a very good premium coffee both brewed and in espresso. Difficult to find in the states.

Pilon - Another Puerto Rican Coffee. Very Smooth. I like it drip brewed better than espresso. This can be found pretty easily in the US. I think BJ's sells it even.

My wife has family that grew coffee in PR. They used to give us green beans and we would roast our own. It was fun to roast and brew. It wasn't as good as the processed stuff. We probably were not roasting properly, but it was still better than most store bought stuff.

(And never EVER go to starbucks). (EVER).
I like Starbucks about as much as Larry likes Landsh*t beer.

Ditto. E and I tried it ONCE - it tastes burnt.

[SuperTrooper]

I've been buying Dunkin Donuts ground coffee since they started selling it. We've tried grinding it ourselves, but the noise at that time of the morning woke the whole house before we were ready to deal with them. Mostly we buy french vanilla flavor.

[Migration Michelle]

Tortuga Rum Coffee...yum yum!

I can't stand it. And I've been known to drink a cup of coffee or 2 in my life....

Seattle's Best, Post Alley....It's a dark, French Roast...love it!

Sumatra is also a good one.....(Didn't someone mention this one?)

I used to order my coffee online from Costa Rica for about 2 yrs.....Until I found out my friend Cheri can get the same coffee there and send it to me...and it only cost her $1 a lb to buy it there...... She lives there half the year and always brings me back a lot of coffee...


Ravens Brew is good too...Ebony Pearls is my favorite...and their Breakfast Blend is good too....

I don't do flavored coffee's or creamers....blech. I like coffee flavored coffee.....

[ScarletB]

Since they make this in the town I live in.... plus it's good.

Like Dunkin Donuts too.

[bravedave]

We buy whatever's Fair Trade certified at Costco.

But Mal, it takes literally 45 seconds to grind your own beans- you scoop the coffee with the grinder lid, dump them in, lock the lid and push the button. It's so worth it! And that's with the el cheapo Target grinder, not even a nice burr grinder that also stores the beans.

+1

I buy the store brand loose beans and grind them myself.
I have never looked back.

Edited to add: Oh, yeah. This stuff is pretty good...

[docandjeanie]

I would recommend whole beans and milling them each day as well.

We use:

Jamaica blue mountain cofee, also Seattle Best is a good one.

I love Starbucks, cafe mocha lowfat, yummy. If I am out and about, I will grab one of them without all the whip cream and extra sugary stuff.

Oh and they also make a Christmas blend that is yummy, you can try a small bag and see if you like it.

Enjoy,

Jeanie

COFFEE BAD

[RinglingRingling]

I'm hooked on Baby's from Key West. I have it delivered pretty much every other month now. Whole bean. One of the best purchases we've made is the Cuisinart grind and brew coffee maker. Granted, I think we are on our third in 10 years or so, but we do use it pretty much everyday and there is a difference in the flavor.

And Baby's is a regular stop on the way in and out of KW at MM15. Yes, they are that good.

I also love Tim Horton's coffee, but I haven't been to Ontario lately.

We're getting quite a few Tim Horton's opening in Michigan lately. Even our lil ol' town opened one a couple of weeks ago.

[Crazy Navy Flyer]

Never been to starbucks. I prefer Mickey D or Dunkin Donut.
