    I don't really have a favorite coffee... Anything except the coffee we have here at work is good coffee as far as I'm concerned. *shudders*

    I'm not sure. I bought it at Sam's Club and it comes in a purple bag. It's hazel nut and I had to grind the beans. Pretty good.

    Starbucks is a rip off.

    White Chocolate Cappucino from the Exxon station by my house. It pwns Fivebucks and is about 1/4th the price...... and 0/4 the snobby attitude.

    You might change your mind, if you drank the coffee at my work.

    No wonder they have these Starbucks satelite shops here.

    The cappuccino machine my wife and I received when we got married is one of the best items I've ever owned. It also saves us a boatload of money considering how much coffee we drink.

    We buy the Indian Premier Espresso Beans from The House of Coffee Beans in Rice Village. Those are the best freaking beans I've ever had. We live in Seattle and still have that stuff shipped to us and drink it exclusively.

    For my birthday this summer I got a home coffee roaster that is easy and convenient to use. I buy unroasted green beans from www.sweetmarias.com (they run ~$6-7/pound) and they have a great variety of fresh beans. The cool thing about them is that they last for 3-4 months at least at room temp and maintain freshness. I roast enough for 4-5 days, which only takes about 15-20 minutes.

    The roaster I have is the Hearthware i-Roast2. I can definitely reccommend it to anyone interested in home roasting. The taste and aroma of freshly roasted beans is something you just have to try.
