Mc D's Premium Roast. If you are fifty ask for Sr coffee, it's a quarter. Makes up for a little bit of taste. LOL Over sixty-five and it's free.

There was a place online that showed ya how to use your popcorn maker to roast the beans.... My husband thought about trying it just to see! But I do believe it would get very messy! Just a thought anyway.

Re: The Need, the Bean and the Cup

If I am going to spend 30 or 40 for a pound of it I am certainly not going to roast it in a 'CHEAP' roaster.
Call me a snob if you must but .......

GOOD coffee is a necessity. It is not something to be taken lightly. 495 is a small price to pay for something that may actually save your life one day.
