Thanks. I could not get it resized into a round for some reason.

Sorry not a coffee drinker, but love the smell of fresh perked coffee, reminds me of home when I was a kid and mom having the little perker on the burner.

It is tea for me and now I mostly brew a big travel mug and sip on it all day at work, even after it is a little cool by noon

Always one in the morning 5:30 while catching up before heading to work.

My mug since 2009! Broke the Mrs on washing it years ago!
Grind beans every morning and dark roast only and black as coal!

I buy from local roasters, one in Crown Point Indiana called Steamwhistle, but my favorite is available online at roast2order.com and the variety is called Flower Mouth. The guy roasts your beans after you order it and ships out so you get the freshest beans possible. Also the owner, Mike Mascow emailed me directly after my first order and we talked back and forth for a couple of days, really nice guy. I like buying from people like that.

Mine is Arbuckle's mexicali in my 509th cup.

We're not too bitchy, but when Hortons is bogo, wifey stocks up. If I'm forced to go to costco have been known to get the 120 box of Pacific Bold. I only dink one cup in the morning or I bounce.

My mother (90) still makes her percolator coffee in the below...and we think Starbucks is strong?

Stopped drinking coffee in my 20's. Caffeine does not agree with my nervous system, Hahaha!! I do make a mean Americano for my wife everyday though. Grind the beans fresh for every cup. She likes her starbucks espresso. Man I do love the smell of fresh coffee though.

Only drink the dark stuff occasionally
but gotta have 1/2 of this to start my day.
The healthy choice

But I brew Folgers every morning in the Mr Coffee for the wife,...for selfish reasons.
Like David I love the aroma!

When I have propane, and it's not raining, I roast my own Arabica beans grown in Central and South America. I prefer a medium-dark roast.

But, I'm out of propane, and the timing of recent rains sent me to the WinCo store's bulk bins of Red Brick Breakfast Blend of medium and dark roasts. $7.98 / lb.

Green beans weigh 20-25% more than roasted beans. So, $7.98 / lb for roasted coffee is the equivalent of $6.38 to $5.98 / lb for green beans. That's about what I pay for green beans, so no real savings. There is a taste difference to me, though some debate that fact.

Ever wonder why stores sell roasted packaged beans in 12 oz bags? That's because it took roughly 1 lb of green beans to make that 12 oz bag of roasted coffee.

I enjoy MGB Columbian Roast. With creamer and lots of sugar.

She still uses it daily, I had a heck of a time finding a replacement for her about 5 years ago when the center section broke, but the internet came through!

Ok. Now I have to cold smoke some roasted beans and check this out

 

[UtahSmokin]

Always BRCC. Done either French press as shown or my chemex. The chemex definitely makes a better full flavor.

I looked for a perculator forever! I remember the one you posted from growing up, my grandmother used to use them. I finally found one in the camping section and sportsman's warehouse.

Folgers classic roast... BUNN coffee pot, two pots a day... on occasion wife forgets to add more coffee when making the 2nd pot... the color is a dead giveaway!
Must be getting old... still drinking coffee at 2 in the afternoon sometimes.
Ever wonder why your coffee seems like it gets cold enough like it just came out of the fridge and nothing else does?
