Now THAT'S A Cup Of Coffee!

Published on August 19, 2007 By MasonM In Misc

As I mentioned in another article, Elie (MM) sent me some of his home roasted coffee beans as a house warming gift. Yesterday I purchased a new coffee grinder and this this morning I put it to use.

I have to say that our good friend Elie is a master coffee bean roaster. This is without question the best cup of coffee I have had the pleasure of drinking in a good many years. I drink a lot of coffee while out on the road, sometimes it's good, sometimes it would be better used as a drain cleaner. I had forgotten how much better freshly ground coffee can be over the pre-ground and packaged stuff.

My thanks again to Elie, this is truly a treat.

YAY! Got it today!

Ooo and it smells so good!

I'll run up to food lion later and grind it, will report on flavor in the morning!

THANK YOU ELIE! (smooche, smooche, smooche)

Cool. You're going to grind it all at once?

You can pick up a small grinder at Wally World for around $25. I bought one the other day, a Mr Coffee one. Works quite well.

I need to get out more often...I guess maybe I don't know what a good cup of coffee tastes like. Its sort of like beer, each person has their unique tastes. Marcie and I got a Gevalia coffeemaker for our wedding and with it came a free couple of boxes of coffee. Well they kept coming! lol. I tried a few times to get them to stop, but they kept coming. So now we have 10 boxes of coffee which is about five lbs...just waiting to be used (Ive been thinking about giving them away). But to me, they make a pretty good cup of coffee, better than folgers anyways. All I have is their signature and Mocha roasts.

Actually, now I just need to find a good iced coffee (flavored) recipe.

Do ya keep kosher, Elie? If'n ya don't, do ya like country ham? It's majorly, MAJORLY salty, and a little bitty slice goes a long way if you use it for cooking rather than eating, say...to flavor a pot of beans or greens.

no thank you dear, just float a couple kisses across country and that will be fair exchange.
