OK, I know this has prolly been beat to death, but I got tired of scrolling to find the thread
Anyhoo, I'm pretty much a coffee nut
Gotta have it
Not to the degree of grinding beans, or those one cup Keurig thingies
No, just good coffee in the can, off the shelf
Not just any shelf
Costco has my coffee
Kirkland Columbian
3 lb can
10 bucks
Years ago, MJB Columbian did it for me
Until they took it off the shelf
I went thru so many brands to find the taste I like (actual coffee taste) I almost swore off coffee (yeah, right)
I don't quite understand how a coffee company can make their 'coffee' taste so flavorless
I imagine their marketing/board meeting would go something like this;
Marketing VP.....'Our coffee tastes like dried ground up dog poop, how do you propose I try to sell it?'
CEO...….'It is dried ground up dog poop, but we put it in a can, marked Coffee, so people buy it
CFO......'And it's cheap....that's why our facility is right next door to SPCA'
How do I like it made?
We have this cheap Mr Coffee thing that just plain rocks
No fancy settings
Just flip the switch and coffee happens
But, if I had my druthers, and wasn't so impatient to get that first cup, I'd have me an old fashioned percolator
The one my gramma always had going
The rich fragrance only coffee in a percolator can produce, wafting thru the kitchen, into the dining area, and on into the living room
Where my grampa had his cup, watching the New York Yankees beat the crap outa the Red Sox
They had a couple other flavors that complimented the coffee aroma
Bacon frying, and cigarette smoke
Loved to go to their place, just to inhale
Amazed they lived as long as they did....but they did
Anyway, what off the shelf brands do you guys like, and how do you like it made?
And...... if you have to, tell me why you buy beans, or use that Keurig thing (can't be to save money)
