I live in a JFG/Maxwell House kind of town. When we finally got a Starbucks two years ago it was a big deal. Since then, I've started grinding (decent, conicle burr) and using a press...especially on weekends when I can really take my time and enjoy. My wife and I are particularly fond of Starbucks' Casi Cielo, a Guatamalan coffee that shows up during the winter. After reading how much aroma and flavor can be lost in just a few weeks I found the closest shop to home that roasts, a place called Cool Beans in Marietta, GA. I got a pound of their Guatamalan...Huehue I think it's called...? And 1/4 lb of Kona. Will this be a similar leap as going from grocery store coffee to Starbucks?
