    Today began with tea, a Young Hyson Green but then a medium roast Jamaican Blue Mountain. After that I switched to a Brazilian Yellow Bourbon.

    Picked up some Peet’s Major Dickason's yesterday. Finishing up some Tim Hortons before we start brewing the Peet's.

    I'm usually drinking 8 O'clock coffee at home.

    I'm back on the Maxwell House House Blend (medium). I toss in some cinnamon with it(and for all my coffees, too).

    I have a few cups left on my 8:00 decaf. First time I tried it-nice.

    Any of the dark roasts or the decaf from Kicking Horse are pretty standard for us. I wait for it to go on sale and load up. Used to drink Doi Chang, but it disappeared from the grocery stores we shop at.

    I haven't had any Peets in a dog's age, but I remember it being excellent. Tim Hortons is good as well.

    This morning I had one kcup of New England Coffee French Roast and Colombian Supremo, mixed that is. I really like the both of them, but the Colombian is tad weak, and the French a tad bit stronger, but they mix well.

    This morning it was McCafe brand.
    It is cheaper than the other variety that I buy (cafe Bustello) and little acidity to it.
    It's a great week day coffee.

    Bustelo Expresso Style. Bustelo Colombian if I can get it which I usually can't.

    I've been sticking with the Java Love Bad Ass Blend for french press. And I've been drinking the Green Mountain Doughnut Shop Medium K cups when too lazy to brew my own. A friend brought over some Unique Coffee Roasters Sunset Blend that he pre-ground for espresso. I don't have an espresso machine so I put some in my Bialetti Moka Pot and made some of the best coffee I've ever tasted from my Moka Pot. I'm done with the heavy and way too bitter Italian Roasts for that device.

    Go to mCoffeebeaned.com. Click on "Coffee Roasters". Click on United States roasters. Click on your state, it has a list of coffee roasters for each state and you may find one locally you never knew existed. I found this to be very useful.

    Type the website address (or whatever text you want to be shown instead like "click here") as you've already done. Then highlight it with the cursor. Then, with that text still highlighted, click on the icon that looks like a chain link (the one without the x). A box will pop up. In that box enter the url (you don't need to include http://). Press insert and you now have a live link in your post.

    Finish up anything else that you want to say and post as normal. Et voilà!

    What a great tool. While I found that I already am buying beans from the closest roaster to me, it's nice to be able to confirm that I've made the right choice. Thanks for posting such a great website.
