The poster said: ...just coffee itself, not a flavor added.
I started grinding whole coffee beans when it was reported many of the ground coffees have a lot of filler ground up with it from pecan shells to dirt. We use a Keurig and using the fill your own cups works just fine. No waste of coffee making one cup when wanted. I like Starbucks whole beans and 8 O'clock whole beans. I grind enough to last a week at a time.

Oh, I how miss coffee!! My doctors have told me NO MORE COFFEE so I am an herbal tea drinker now...and it's just not the same!
When I WAS allowed coffee, my hands-down favorite coffee was the French Roast coffee from Community Coffee. http://www.communitycoffee.com/produ...d-French-Roast I would never have known about this stuff if I hadn't had a roommate from Louisiana during college; her father would send her care packages including this coffee and I got totally hooked on it. I started having him send ME bags too (I paid him, of course), and then later when the internet became a thing DH & I started ordering it online by the case.
I love it because I like very strong coffee, and you can brew this stuff thick as mud and it doesn't get all weird and bitter like most coffee does. SO good.
Man. I want a cuppa my Community Coffee sooo bad right now!! Just looking at their logo online gives me such happy memories, I swear I can almost smell it! LOL

We drink a lot of coffee. About 1 1/2 pots a day between DH and I. He gets up early and has a cup from day before to get started while he brews a fresh pot. I had to get on him because he made it weak. Told him to add another scoop. So got Folger's French roast. Little stronger. I like Dunkin Donuts and McD's but he says it's too strong. I like a rich brewed flavor. Oh well. So I have about 3-4 cups a day because of warming it up.

I have tried new site for coffee called "cmebrew." It's an online business owned by a gentleman named Charlie in Ohio. They have a wide variety of beans from all over the world and he roasts them fresh to order. The prices are very good too. I have bought from no one but him for over a year now and I never buy grocery store coffee any more. There's no comparison.

I found at Wal-Mart Sams Choice organic. Which I really like. I used to swear by 8 o`clock. But I think think they changed. It's not as good.I only get 1cup a day so I want it good. I like a stronger cup.
