Coffee !

[ss11943859]

I've been all over these forums & can't find the 'right forum', so mybe i'll find an answer on the front porch ? 

I have 2 cans of 'cheapie' coffee ; tried mixing them so they would be more flavorful, but not-so-much did it work. Might buy a more spendy brand & mix them, but in meantime, anyone have any ideas on how to make these cheap brands taste better ?

Thanks !

Good morning to everyone at our Saturday Morning Coffee Club May, 2020! 

Our morning coffee today is Toasted Praline Coffee from Door County Coffee along with fresh baked Pillsbury roll.

This coffee tastes of sweet notes of toasted pecans, sugar and cream come together in this Southern-inspired flavored coffee. You will enjoy the smooth and creamy flavors of this favorite New Orleans confection in each cup you sip!

COFFEE ROASTING WITH COFFEE ON THE PORCH

I swoon at the smell of freshly brewing coffee. I love to put my face right into a bag of freshly roasted beans and breathe it in. Coffee ice cream, mocha drinks (like my beloved-yet-expensive ‘adult chocolate milk’ at Starbucks), and meat rubs with robust coffee flavors (like my favorite barbecued pork tenderloin recipe) are my absolute faves.

And, yet, I’ve been just an occasional java drinker most of my adult life.

Last week, however, was a game changer. We were treated to a visit to the coffee roasting operation of our favorite coffee roasters, Dan and Judy, of Coffee on the Porch – Camden, Maine. (Alright, fine, I don’t know any other roasters. They’re still my faves.)

I LOVE FOOD TOURS!

Whether it’s learning about beer production, maple syrup making, or raising dairy cows, food tours offer entertainment and an education. Touring the coffee roasting operation with Dan and Judy, though, was so much more. They welcomed us into their home like old friends. Over delicious cups of freshly roasted and brewed coffee (two of their varieties – Blueberry Mountain and Antigua Express), we gabbed about our families, our jobs, our favorite beverages, and eventually their business. Then, they took us on a little tour of their operation.

COFFEE ROASTING UP CLOSE AND 

Dan even gave us a demonstration, roasting a batch of beans just for us. Our minivan has smelled deliciously of dark, rich Costa Rican beans ever since.

We had a great morning visiting the Coffee on the Porch – Camden, Maine headquarters. If you are a coffee-lover, check out their many varieties, and definitely check out their Facebook page, where Dan often posts what roast he is drinking that day, along with gorgeous pics of their coastal Maine area.

CHEERS TO YOU, DAN AND JUDY!

After trying several brands of coffee, my wife and I kept returning to Folger's, both for price and for flavor. Some coffees cost more and some cost less, but Folger's medium Classic Roast has consistently provided the flavor we like and a 5-cup pot of coffee costs us about 30 cents or less per day, depending on where I bought the coffee and whether or not it was on sale.

Once in a while, I buy a 3-pound bag of Colombian whole bean coffee from Costco and grind that myself occasionally for freshly ground coffee when I feel like having it. That one is a splurge, since it costs about 60 cents per 5-cup pot.

My wife likes to go to Beans and Brews once or twice a week, but I'm content with getting my 20-ounce regular coffee from my own kitchen.

For daily coffee, my wife and I use a Mr. Coffee 5-cup on/off drip coffee maker. Those are about $20. We could spend another $10 and get one with timers, but what good are those when we do it all in the morning, anyway, and don't know when we'll get up?

For family parties, which might be rare for a while, we get out the big guns: A 12-cup Mr. Coffee.

Mr. Coffee has been good for us for years. We have seen no good reason to switch to anybody else.
