from what i can gather, i should probably buy whole beans and grind them. preground beans just lose flavor? | how much coffee do you drink? jesus
1 cup in the morning and 1 in the afternoon is more than enough.. thats even too much for me, i usually drink it in the afternoon or night. dont drink it to stay up or anything, just for taste. nothing beats a good nights sleep to stay awake! |

to be honest Tullys whole bean morning blend is fine. I drink 1-2 pots a day (:D) and if you dont fall into the trap everyone does of filling up the grinder with beans youll have a very smooth drinkable coffee.
cover the blades by a 1/4 inch of the grinder and get to be pretty fine. pour a pot of water through that and youll have a golden and delicious coffee. mm |

what variety is that last one?:nervous: | they are just from different places in guatemala... i dont know, we dont have varieties.. we just group our coffees by the height they are grown at. most is around 1500feet.... i think the blue one is grown a bit higher. taste the same though. |
