Jamaican Blue mountain at 40+ bucks a pound is a nice treat, Bute the hot chocolate sparrow's contractors blend[vienna roast] is jam packed with flavor and go juice. 2 cups of that is my limit.

One from the lip ripper

Blue Mountain is nice coffee, but it's not worth the cost. Not when the money could be better spent on my son's early education or handmade salumi.

There are too many great coffees to mention really. Just make sure it's freshly roasted, fair trade, stored and brewed with utmost care and you simply can't go wrong.

I'd take Starbucks over DD any day, but they tend to go overboard with the roaster on many coffees. Don't know if this is how they want it, or if it's just to mask bean or freshness issues.

Pete's is much better than starbucks, but for even money you can get better beans roasted locally at Coastal Roasters in Tiverton. Please patronize them whenever possible.

Mine gets sent direct from JA, I get fresh beans cheaper than buying a pound from dunkies
With 3+ trips a year to JA, I also bring home "several" pounds to give away to friends....

Used hard and put away dirty....

Clearly you've been holding out on your coffee knowledge and experience all these years. We will discuss this further over a few beers in the near future...

Your brother says he's coming down Saturday. Are you game?

Glad you enjoyed Chef,Italian Verona has been my all time fave.Spence had some good tips but I would like to add that if you put cold tap water in the reservoir the night before,all the chlorine will disapate and you'll get a better cup.NEVER use hot tap water to start.
