[QUOTE="nismo270r, post: 408987, member: 1658"] Home - fast/good - pump and lever(not so fast) machines, local roaster Work - cheap/good - kettle, aeropress or clever dripper, local roaster, Hario Skerton hand grinder I still need to order up some beans from Pozz, you're a few hours too far north for a leisurely drive, but definitely closer than most! I just have to remember NOT to automatically pick up a bag of beans on the weekly stop at the shop, lol. I will say, if you like preground coffee, you should give it a whirl in something like the Clever Dripper or an aeropress. It's a small investment and tastes quite different than running it through a drip pot. I've used 8'oclock, Chock Full 'o Nuts, Cafe Du Monde, even Sam's Club Columbian through the dripper and aeropress with decent results. Plus it's fun to experiment with different grind settings and brew times to see how it affects the cup. Then again, I'm a bit of a geek :face: Also, don't let anyone tell you that pods/k-cups are fast AND cheap. They're fast alright, but when you break it down, they're not cheap by any means. The only pod type of system I've had anything semi-palatable on was the Nespresso line. It's not espresso, but reminded me more of a strong coffee, maybe similar to an aeropress. [/QUOTE]
