Oh lawdI'm a non-conformer. I don't care for much of anything Starbucks. It all tastes burnt. The only good blend they make that I will drink is the Siren's Blend. If you have not tried, I think it's their best offering by a long shot.
However, I do fancy Cafe Bustelo. The best espresso ground coffee hands down. I'm a huge fan of Cuban Coffee, and this duplicates it the best I can brew. I was using an Italian Moka Pot. Now, I use an Aero Press. With nothing else but a shot of Natural Bliss Sweet Cream, the best morning cup I can muster. Plus I can add extra hot water to the mug and make it a "normal" cup of coffee.
Yeah, sorry. I forget that people with jobs can’t catch every post.Am I missing something?
yikes. Any idea what he was on life support for?Yeah, sorry. I forget that people with jobs can’t catch every post.
He posted yesterday that his wife’s family had decided to take his father-in-law off life support today.Which I guess is maybe the “family stuff” that has kept him away from the Zone a lot in the last few months.

Do you like Green Mountain?Walmart was out of Starbucks, all varieties. The yellow tags showed an increase in price from $6.73 per 12oz bag to $9.43. So I got a bag of Peets and a bag of this to try...

Kroger carries it here and it's pretty good for the price point.Never had it.
I only bought this Kroger brand cause it was on sale $4.99. Typically the Green Mountain is about $7I've never seen it at Walmart or Publix and I don't have Kroger.
I guess I'm gonna hafta find a new coffee cause I ain't paying almost $10 for a 12oz. bag.
I also bought some Folgers Black Silk and I'm going to mix some Mocha in with it. See how that tastes. Might be my solution. That and stop making it so important.
Which Peet’s did you get?Walmart was out of Starbucks, all varieties. The yellow tags showed an increase in price from $6.73 per 12oz bag to $9.43. So I got a bag of Peets and a bag of this to try...
