harbl i think you might like the whole foods pacific rim or pleasant morning buzz.
i am almost out of my giant stash of bladucci's beans but i guess that's ok bc i am moving to a good coffee city.
one thing: always buy beans and grind yr own. also i get compliments.also always buy beans and grind yr own. it's really gross, the reason (incidentally i heard this on terry gross' show!).

My friend had an espresso machine at her apt and used the Bustelo and it was SO GOOD (although also "so hot" and "so sweet" so maybe I should try those qualities too). Sadly does not work out the same w my french press.
― Tottenham Heelspur (in orbit), Saturday, 9 November 2013 14:38 (ten years ago) link
The ridiculously cheap totally not fancy Mexican beans we have been using somehow taste pretty good with our espresso machine! I say "our," but it is totally the spouse's baby. I never touch it, I just drink the stuff. We also use milk and sugar so I dunno I'm sure that helps the el-cheapo beans.

I had friends living in Singapore the past few months, they made side trips to Hanoi and Bali and brought me these:
http://i.imgur.com/Xl5VKTx.jpg
I feel like the Vietnamese one on the left is pretty much a scam as it was much cheaper and is very careful to use the word "weasel" a lot without every mentioning that it passed through a civet cat's digestive tract. The Indonesian one was much more expensive, specifically mentions having been shit out by an animal, and was purchased from a place with an actual civet cat on display so it's either a more elaborate scam or is actually real and therefore exploitative to animals.
Either way, I'm going to aeropress one or both of these tomorrow.

i think the cuisinart is dead. the thing that keeps coffee from dripping out while the pot is not in the machine is not staying pushed in enough, i think. so it keeps overflowing unless i am vigilant about pushing the pot back into place every 30 seconds. i would like some fancy contraption but i don't have time for that in the morning and don't want to clean it. time for another shitty coffee maker.
