Re: The Need, the Bean and the Cup
I just discovered a new coffee company in Seattle that has phenomenal coffee. It's Fonte Coffee Roaster. You can order it on-line & they roast the day they ship it to you.
I had some this morning made in a french press. It was YUMMY!! I may have broken my starbucks addiction.
Their website is below:

Re: The Need, the Bean and the Cup
I am addicted to McDonald's Vanilla Iced Coffee. I get one every morning. I have to have it with extra vanilla and cream or I refuse to drink it. Other than that, I don't drink coffee.

Speaking of Mickey D's.... did you know they are going to be putting coffee bars? They are complete with a dedicated "Barista". Had my first McDonalds Espresso a few days ago. Not too bad - about as good as Panera Bread or even some Starbucks I have had, but nowhere near my local roaster's quality.

To obtain beans while still in this state they must be collected almost immediately after they are deposited on the forest floor. Once they have been exposed to the elements for even a very short period, particularly in the rainy season, they break down into individual beans and we can no longer be sure that they are genuine kopi luwak.

My beloved coffee maker died on me a few months back... I decided to try a french press and I loved it! Of course I have another coffee pot, but I was very impressed with my French Press.

30 is cheaper than 400
I know it is expensive but it is SOOOOOOOOOOO good. I am a wimp coffee drinker. I usually put sugar in it or cream to help with the bitter taste. KONA doesn't have that and I can drink it like a man. STRONG AND BLACK
