If the coffee pot in my house is not full it is brewing another pot. I'd probably just agravate my carpal tunnel syndrome with a press, but I will have to try it after y'all perked my curiosity.

I'll drink pretty well any coffee you serve as long as there's no sugar or sweetner in it. I'm sweet enough as I am.
I like cowboy or creek coffee, we use a stove percolator at the cabin, I really like that too, use a drip at home went through a phase of a couple of years where we'd only drink fresh ground beans and they are better. But I don't have a sensitive pallette, I'll eat about anything and drink most anything, but not sweet coffee, yech.

Since the group seems to have so much experience, what do you use to clean the insides of a drop coffee pot? I normally just run a little vinegar and water through but wondering if anything else is recommended? TM
Some mornings, it just does not feel worth it to chew through the straps!~

There is almost as much pretentious, silly crap written about coffee as there is about wine. Coffee either tates good, or it tastes bad. One or the other. All else is pompous posturing. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Wait till you get us on rifles! Then we'll show you some pompous posturing. (grin)

If you use city water and have a very high mineral content, you might need to use CLR once or twice a year to get the scale out. But that's a little drastic. - TJM

I use only purified water and grind all my own. We get Gevalia via mail order and all of their coffees are very good. I really like the Costa Rican Peaberry. Peets Coffees, some of the Trader Joes blends....like Bay Blend and Mocha Java are excellent. And if you are also a cigar smoker....go to JR Cigars.com and check out their Monte Cristo and Mayorca brand beans....very good.

if you really, really like good coffee, check this website. The owners Chris and Nora live across the street from one of my kids. These folks make some of the freshest, artisan roast coffee in America. http://www.sweetwaterorganiccoffee.com/The beans I am using this week are Sumatra Gayoland PPKGO from the Aceh Highlands.

Now here's something that will brand me forever as a total barbarian.
I like the instant Folgers in MRE's! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />
Dang, that nearly made me vomit <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> As far as camping... http://www.javajuiceextract.com/

I've settled on Yuban Columbian. It's the best ground coffee I've found so far. I've been tempted to try some of the stuff Costco carries (Seattles Best-----I think?) and start grinding my own, but haven't been motivated yet.
Perculators seem to get to most of the "good" out of the grounds, and can brew some dark java, but as far as tasting better, I'm not convinced. YMMV. 222
