Re: Green Mountain Coffee

You got it right, years ago I drank and enjoyed coffee at McDonalds,
Starbucks and bought canned coffee like Yuban or Folgers. These tasted fine
to me. Then I got "spoiled" by this newsgroup. I bought some green beans and
a popper. The coffee tasted so much better that I can no longer stomach the
battery acid that McDonalds sells for coffee. The bagged roasted coffee from
Starbucks is garbage IMHO. Now I roast in small batches, only enough to last
<7 days. I find the best taste on day 2-4 depending on the variety of beans.
