I've been starting the day for the past decade with a French press and Peet's coffee. My wife bought me an Aeropress for Xmas and I was more than a little skeptical of it's claims. Not anymore. It makes an incredibly clean cup of espresso in minutes, without the cost or maintenance of a decent espresso machine.

vermont coffee company, light roast although just placed an order for 5# of dark roast.
typical scenario is i make 4-5 cups for my wife and i, and end up drinking them all.

yeah I know, I'm putting in a plug for a local business, but they really do roast the best coffee I have ever had.
And the prices reflect that, but I still would recommend ordering some.

+1. I bought it because it is so much easier to clean than a french press, so I was ecstatic when it actually made a better cup of coffee.

The Kenya Peaberry is my current fav. They have it on tap at the Charlotte Brick store and it's been the main motovation on several rides this fall/winter.
My problem is that caffine dosen't do a thing for me. I can fall asleep minutes after a bed time 16oz. I love the stuff tho......
Vacumn brewing, fun to watch and makes great coffee.

Just drank a scoop of whey and water, then ate some banana chips. Yeah, it has nothing to do with coffee, but I feel pretty jacked up right now.

Can't wait for round two after lunch. This morning's cup was insufficient to clear the sluggishness and headache brought on by the mild weather.
