French presses are great.

If you're into espresso, give Coffee Emergency's Code Brown a try. It's buttah! Very light roast, and a boatload of crema. I pick up a lb. every month or two. Fast delivery. His other roasts are good too. Expensive, but the Yemen Mohka Ismaili is like no coffee you'll find. Sweet and smooth. Truly an incredible coffee.

I used to do the Starbucks latte 3-4 days a week. Unfortunately, it got too crowded at my local stop. Hey, I'll fork over $3.50 for a latte but not if I have to wait 15-20 minutes to get it.

In order to save money and time and up the quality and choice in my coffee, I got a Rancilio Silvia and a Rocky grinder. Espressos, americanos, lattes. You name it. I can make it as good or better than Starbucks.

Now if I can clear some space in my parking lot and plant a sugar cane field, it'd be all over. I'd be the Pinky of the coffee world.
