Zero fault to MR25 for not finding it because it has a painfully stupid thread title, but we do have a coffee thread: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2991

la prima still selling 16ozReally irritated that coffee bags are now shrinking to 11 or 10 oz.
Coffee cans (Folgers. etc) used to be 3 lbs and now they are far less. Just like ice cream used to always be 1/2 gallon.Really irritated that coffee bags are now shrinking to 11 or 10 oz.
I've been using the Kicking Horse Cliff Hanger Espresso for quite a while now. I buy the 2.2 pounders directly from them when they have discounts.FWIW, I swear by this stuff, and have recommended it to multiple friends, most who have switched to it full time like myself:

Dark roast, smooth as hell, not at all bitter. It's perfect.
That's good to know, because I've been eyeballing that for a while now. I have just been using my Kick Ass for when I make lattes or cappucino because I have it on hand.I've been using the Kicking Horse Cliff Hanger Espresso for quite a while now.

I guess Wal-Mart sells them:Yep. And honestly, I'm surprised they never came back - especially given how big things are now. Go to the movies and get a small soda, and my kid could practically swim in it.
Have you tried iced coffee? Much less bitter.I didn't trust myself with the janky old coffee machine they have here so I'll have to have someone show me how that works if I decide to continue this exploration.
forgot about those plastic bottomsThere used to be reinforced plastic on the bottom. That's what's blue.
I remember taking the empty glass pop bottles to our local grocery store for recycling.

Today was only the 2nd time I've had coffee outside of a wedding (and only because it was served to me without my input). Have not tried iced yet.Have you tried iced coffee?

I’d try going to a couple different places for cold brew. Might be an easier gateway. Starbucks ain’t bad. Dunkin blows. Most local places have good stuff I am partial to coffee tree roastersThere used to be reinforced plastic on the bottom. That's what's blue.

Ah. The reinforced bottom on the Coke bottle just looks like Coke so I didn't think anything of it.

Or cold brew. Add a couple scoops of ground coffee into water, stir it, and let it sit in the fridge overnight. Definitely smoother.Have you tried iced coffee?
