Where do you fags source your coffee beans? World Market has 12 or 16oz bags (can't remember) for like 5.99 each, from various countries and shit. Wondering where you guys get your shit.

I just buy the beans they have at the supermarket because I'm not a pretentious coffee snob.

costco

their shits generally pretty good, esp for the price.

If I wanna treat myself though, local roaster. Its more about the freshness after the roast than the bean itself, imo

Dunkin donuts or starbucks, I don't care if people die during the process from field to my cup. The chocolate game is more dangerous for farmers anyway.

Eight O'Clock brand from the sto'. All that gourmet bean nonsense is just marketing blither meant to draw in the inexperienced consumers. All you need are some properly roasted beans and a consistent, below-boiling way to make coffee from them.

From a local specialty roaster. I also only wipe my ass with toilet paper made from recycled paper gathered by free range children.

Local roasters, but freals, anything at the grocery store that actually has a roast date printed on it is probably alright.

this

just talk to a local roaster, they're usually huge nerds and don't have a subversive marketing campaign; their marketing is generally truth.

You can hunt around with their given knowledge for something you like. I don't recall everything I've heard, but higher quality beans tend to be less acidic. I used to like that flavor a while ago but it wrecks my stomach. I believe Ethiopian varieties are less acidic.

Given your tastes, you can order them from many places without paying out the ass for store "gourmet" bullshit.

Peet's Coffee is probably the best I've had as far as pre ground goes. I used to try getting my coffee from local roasters but now I just buy green beans in bulk online and then roast them at home on the stovetop. You don't get as even of a roast but I personally like the slight variety in the roast levels, adds a bit more taste I think

Grocery store carries a few local roasters, obviously not as fresh as buying direct but it saves me driving halfway across town.

Not really. It's kinda like this:
You can't roast low quality green coffee in such a way that will make it taste good.
You can't brew a poorly roasted bean in such a way that will make it taste good.
You can't brew a stale bean in such a way to make it taste good.
You can't brew a freshly roasted, poorly sourced/roasted coffee in such a way that will make it taste good.

You need all of the parts to work for any of it to work.
Freshness is also overrated. Coffee generally is nicest at at least 4 days post roast. Some is best even up to a few weeks post roast.

if you are from the UK (not just talking to OP) Hasbean and Rave are the best affordable roasters. Then you've got the likes of Ozone and Square Mile if you don't mind paying £10 a bag. Ignore all these people going on about supermarket brands, beans within 2 weeks from roasting make a difference

I hope you don't think most stores are selling off their stocks and getting new stock in ideal time frames, especially on the cheap stuff. Small, local roasters are a better way to go, especially when you can buy a drink or get a sample from whatever batch you're considering.
