I've heard Kona coffee is the best, but most of the Kona on the market really isnt' Kona.
 Quoting: Lisa*Lisa


There are many good Arabicas. I avoid Robusta because I don't like bitter coffee. Like any vegetable matter it is sensitive to storage and other things. It is graded and the cheaper less flavorful beans are French or Italian roasted. To me all burnt beans taste alike. It is important the brewing water not be so hot it releases bitter oils. That happens just shy of 200F so boiling (percolator) is too hot. You can readily identify it by the oil sheen on the top of the coffee. I find it upsets my stomach if I drink too much percolator coffee.

Auto drip.


I've recently become addicted to coffee having gone almost my whole life and never drinking it. I've got a lot of catching up to do.

I use Keurig sometimes and French press sometimes. French press is my fav for better whole bean coffee that I grind. That said, NOTHING beats the old fashioned percolated coffee my in-law make with their glass percolator!!

French press and Percs are so bad for you!!

There is a compound in coffee called cafestol (a type of terpene), and cafestol stimulates the production of LDL (the bad cholesterol) in your body. Fortunately, cafestol exists only in the oily part of the coffee bean, and is thus filtered out… when you use a paper filter. The cafestol (and the oil) get left in the paper and you get left with a clean & steaming hot mug of joe (when you use a paper filter). Now – when you prepare coffee without a paper filter, such as

Making coffee with a French press (there is a filter but it is a metal mesh and does not collect the cafestol / oily part),
By boiling the ground beans (Scandinavian tradition or Turkish coffee), or
By making espresso (less cafestol than French press, but more than regular filtered coffee)

Melitta pour over filters with beans ground in a Krups. I've been doing that for years. Also love the Corningware peculator for making more than one cup at a time.

I use a percolator. When I'm camping the smoke of the fire adds a nice flavor to the coffee you can't get anywhere else.

Least effort coffee - my way:

1. Boil water.

2. Get a soup bowl with a handle(I call it a cup), and put two teaspoons of Walmart instant coffee.

3. Add 2 teaspoons of Walmart cocoa mix.

4. Fill 4/5ths of the cup with boiling water.

5. Add a slobbering of Walmart imitation creamora so it floats on the top.

7. Stir until all crap is dissolved.

6. Fill to the top with cold water so it's cool enough to drink.

8. Relax, get on GLP, and slurp it down. After a while it's tolerable, and it fulfills the need to hydrate and caffeinate.

9. Belch as necessary, lest some gas should percolate down to the anal area.

Don't tell anyone! This is a top secret classified recipe. Use filtered, non-fluoridated water for best results and a healthy lifestyle.

French press is the best if you want the full flavor of the bean.

All of the above...plus an ibrik and an espresso pot. We also have a Keurig for the decaf drinkers who visit.

Once we get settled in, I'll scout out & buy from a small coffee roaster again. It was nice having freshly roasted beans every few days.

In the Summer months, I make cold pressed coffee in the French press. It takes two presses to keep an ample supply going. I count coffee by the pot not the cup HaHa.

Come to think of it, I do have instant coffee, too. Actually have friends who prefer instant over fresh brewed. I'm accommodating =}.

Choice no two is a brand new Podium machines we just bought last weekend. For all the simplicity and durability. Coffee is good but not always great.
