    I only started the little I do because of my buddy. Consistently getting the best coffee I ever had is a pretty damned good selling point.

    I stopped on page 1. Damn, my friend didn't tell me what he paid for his Hot Top. Well, they're retired DINKs. He was a doctor and she was a lawyer.

    Well, technically you can but you really need some sort of tumbler or stirring effect so the beans roast evenly. A basic one isn't outrageous in price but you can spend some serious money if you get enthusiastic about it.

    I can only roast 300 grams with mine. That's fine, though. Dry weight works out to be about three days worth. That's about as long as I want to go between roastings,anyway.

    I want to start roasting my own again. I have two separate roasters but don't have room inside for a way to cool the beans down fast. I hope to figure out something for the back porch this spring. It's been low on the list of things to do.

    I've drunk that capsule coffee and it does have caffeine but I don't too much trust what they put in there. To damn with faint praise, it is cleaner, better and as convenient as instant.

    I like a light roast. It doesn't seem to upset my stomach as much and less of the caffeine is destroyed in the roasting.

    I think he was failing miserably at duplicating Republican hate speech and race baiting. If you need examples , turn on anything but rightwing media. Hell, it's probably there, too but they consider it fair commentary.

    When I use whole bean, I grind the night before and put it in a tupperware container. Seems my wife vehemently objects to the sound of the grinder at 5:30AM. Go figure. She didn't even buy it when I told the coffee was just waking her up twice. Well, the bottle was plastic and she doesn't have...

    I like good coffee a lot but my basic requirement is the caffeine.

    UNC Sports UNC basketball what ifs

    There were a lot of what ifs that year although that was probably the biggest. Walter not breaking his finger right before the tournament and Ford hyperextending his elbow were the chef's kisses.

    A drip is what I use. I do much prefer a cone type to a basket filter type.

    I have a good friend who does that. He's the one that introduced me to that Finca Kilimanjaro. My wife and I lived with them for a while when our health was bad and my son was having trouble getting his house and our future apartment done. We'd get 50 lb bags at a time. He's telling me that the...
