So how do you do your coffee (If you do coffee at all)? Do you make it at home, go out for a cup, grab one at a drive through on the way to work? Are you a coffee snob? Drink anything with the name coffee on it? Do you drink it in the morning, all day, weekends only? How do you contribute to the world's second most traded commodity?
I obtain green coffee beans from and internet supplier (actually Mrs. T does the ordering) and once a week or so I roast using our Gene Cafe coffee roaster. The machine is somewhat programmable but I find that paying attention to the process allows for the best success. I roast the beans until they start sweating oil, allow that caramelize a bit and then start the cooling cycle. The beans are good for about a week or so, then they begin to resemble coffee shop fare as they go stale...
No additives, just good strong black coffee.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)
