We like fresh coffee. I buy green beans and roast them. The coffee most people drink is stale. Fresh roast only lasts about 6 days before it starts to go stale.
I roast about every 5 days. I buy most of my beans from coffee bean direct. Kenya AA, Guatemala pea berry, Columbia Supremo, sometimes some exotic beans from Sumatra, India or Borneo, never drink blends.
Mostly roast to a light city roast, some beans we roast to medium city roast. Dark coffee and espresso are burned beans.
Our week end coffee is Kona. We buy it from a small organic farm. We drink it black with organic stevia.
We drink a 10 cup pot daily.
We have given up restaurant coffee. And don’t care for lukewarm coffee.
