I don’t make coffee super often… because I’m an absolute heretic and drink Java Monster or Cafe Mocha Soylent and occasionally hate myself… but when I do I want a good cup, something not too bitter or burnt-tasting but with a good flavor.
So I’m looking for something that is… y’know, fancier than Folgers but not exactly Kopi Luak either.
My current go-to is Lavazza Intenso. I just got an aeropress (thanks to all the folks on here who recommended it) and I have a hand burr grinder … somewhere…
So. What should I be trying, assuming I want tasty coffee that isn’t priced like it’s made of gold?
Death Wish coffee happens to be only a couple of hours drive from me. (I’m in New York but not the City; they’re in the part of New York that rubs elbows with Vermont, I think.) Is that close enough for this to work or do I need to look, like, within my county?
