So what's your favorite cuppa joe?
No tea sippers need respond!
Many thanks to Bluestreak for my latest!
Kauai Teaberry Estate in a can from Trader Joes. Now I have a place for all of those loose signal tubes. I have a few old Folgers and Chock Full o' Nuts cans that I rescued from Gramps place after he went to his reward that I use for hand tool caddys. So, these new cans have good company! Thanks again Dave!

A couple times a year we order beans from this small dealer.

I don't know all the different kinds of beans but we have never been disappointed. We tried roasting our own and that was fun, too. It also yielded the best tasting coffee. The trade off is that roasting is somewhat messy and makes a good bit of smoke.

We buy 3 pound bags of Kirkland Columbian Supremo whole bean coffee from Costco. Very decent for the price.

That one has been the staple around here for many a moon Pat. It'll continue to be for the reason you mentioned. No better deal to be had as far as we can see.

I must warn you, my old lady is going to be cursing your family going back generations as I've never even considered this before. Who would've thunk of repurposing a hot air popcorn popper? Thanks eBacon and consider yerself cursed by a sweet Connecticut yankee gal of Irish extraction...
You'll be in good company BTW.

I'm with Eight O'clock whole bean regular. Grind it fresh each morning; take mine black, 51%-of-the-vote takes hers with a touch of 1% milk.

Whole bean Columbian Supremo from Gevalia. Once a year they send their Royal Vinter blend, usually just before December.

It's not Starbucks.
I am, fairly easy to please with respect to coffee. The one I have actually been enjoying the most is the generic brand from one of the local stores: Best Choice Columbian Expresso Dark Blend.
Regards,

Any time, Bob. Glad you like it.
The Kirkland is ours, too.
