Do you grind your own

I purchase beans and vacu-packed ground coffee as well...

It's a matter of convenience, sometimes I have a moment when I can heat and grind coffee beans, and sometimes, the pre-ground is simply faster...

But no matter which one I use, I always take the time to brew my coffee- that drip stuff never really worked for me!:)

I like my coffee strong and full-flavored, that why I re-heat ny beans and brew the grinds slowly in a percolator (with egg shells to cut the acid)

Even canned coffee will taste much better with this method, coffee that been sitting around in a metal can, will become bitter with acid- clean eggshells are alkaline, which will neutralise this acid...

No reason for your coffee to ever be bitter again!:)

BTW: Dried beans will do the same thing as eggshells- just add a handful to your coffee water and see for yourself!:)

Since you are obviously and intelligent and thoughful Human who love my favorite beverage, I going to introduce you to Coffee Geek:
