you might wanna give it a thought??? and another this is you can taste the difference region to region and between the various beans. the mass roasted coffee it is over roasted to hide the stale taste.

been dealing with these people for over 10 years... very nice and great coffee

i also use a french press and burr grinder for really great tase. really the only way to go is a with a burr grinder... the little bullshit grinders are really choppers and do not grind the bean at all:

complete bullshit

Very good advice. I wasnt aware of the burr grinder and always used the cheap blade grinder. But for about $100 you can be ground properly everytime which makes good sense.

Im a coffee black guy from way back. I usually go with PapaNicholas http://papanicholas.com/ now days (great taste and value) out of Chicago but I have ordered over the web. Some really great coffee available on the web but usually not cheap.

For example just looked and PapaNicholas Hawaiian coffee is $16.99 on the web and $6.99 (or less) at the stores. Ouch. Luckily most don't gouge that bad over the web.
