I grind my own often so that it is rather fresh, using a century old wall mount Arcade Crystal No. 4 every couple of days. I usually get one of Peet's dark roasts and generally prefer South & Central American, though Hawaiian, Sumatran and Ethiopian are enjoyed when the price is right!
Fairly strong through a Melitta filter, one cup at a time, and straight up black!!!
Just every once in a while, a finger or so of something "evil" finds it way into the brew, but that is rather rare.
Ooh, that Peet's is some fine java, brother
The guy who started Starbucks learned how to properly roast coffee while working at Peet's, back in the long ago.
When I have to turn to a can, I like Medaglia D'Oro Caffe' Nero Espresso, which is an Italian style espresso grind, and pretty good made as espresso, or even as a regular cup of joe, done through a Melitta filter. Either way ... it will get your attention!
My wife loves Starbucks, but luckily for my steam budget, she only gets it 2 or 3 times a month
Nothing like spending $6-8 on a cup of coffee
But I suppose I'm a little worse when buying steam toys
