Default Coffee brands

I was just curious what BRANDS of coffee everyone drinks here. My personal favorite is Millstone because you can mix & match the beans right there in the store, making your own coffee creations. You can also buy the beans separately & combine them at home when you're ready to brew. I also actually like they're flavored coffees, because their flavors are subtle & not syrupy sweet like other brands. Even better, you can mix a flavored coffee with one of their unflavored coffees for an even more delicate hint of flavor. Or you could combine two kinds of unflavored coffee to create a unique blend, or a caffienated blend with an caffienated blend to make a half caf...the possibilities are endless!

Default Try a good non flavored coffee

I would suggest to try a good non flavored coffee, I love real Colombian coffee. I personaly don't think Millstone is a gourmet type of coffee.\r\nMy favorite is Oma coffee, which roasted in Colombia, this way you know it is real Colombian coffee! \r\nYou can find it on the internet at www.AuthenticColombian.com\r\n\r\nYou may not as many possibilities to mix but I'm sure you will love this coffee.

\r\n\r\nI agree about Millstone not being a "gourmet" coffee. But, I'm a poor grad student. Millstone is pretty pricey to drink as an everyday coffee like I do on my meager budget. Most of my friends drink coffees like Folgers & Maxwell House from the big tin cans. Blech.

he..he..he..mine of course ! But if I am travelling I always like to experiment with local roasters coffees. Some of the best and certainly freshest coffees come from small specialty roasters. Perhaps the best coffee I have had in Indonesia (ahm..except mine of course) came from a small roaster in a little town in Sumatra. The hotel I was staying at was high on a hill in the centre of the town of Bukittinggi. It was 7pm and having had dinner was taking a walk. A gentle wind blew the aroma of roasting coffee right up to the loby of the hotel. After about20 minute tracked the roaster down. He was roasting a local robusta in a 500gm roaster made from wrought iron and bike parts. The roaster was rotated using a small yanmar engine. It took him 3 hours to do each roast....quite amazing considering most commercil roasters take between 12 and 25 minutes to roast. The coffee was good to!

\r\n\r\nYes, you are right! I do the same, I always try new brands of coffee while travelling and I noticed the same interesting thing, that small specialty roasters make the best coffee
