Yeah, an AeroPress will make stronger than usual coffee. More like espresso-strength. One thing you could do is dilute it with hot water after it's made. Cal Chapman The Coffeemash

Hey everyone! I'm wondering how you all make your iced coffee. I love drinking it, especially during the hot summer months. I'm also a big fan of cold brewed coffee, so I've recently been combining the two. I'll take my coffee press pot, add cold filtered water and the ground coffee, and let...

Wow- sounds intense! I'm not sure if I'm curious enough to try it, though.

This is a complicated subject, and I agree with the suggestion that there should be more education at the store level. But I also think the barista should be the one educating and, like Shadow745 said, customers may be shocked. Baristas should be the experts, and shouldn't be afraid to speak...

Hi tejabhai. Thanks for posting this great discussion starter. I enjoy lighter roasts by Lavazza and Seattle's Best. Which Nescafe do you like? I'm usually open for trying something new!

Hey everyone! I'm new to this forum. I've always had good luck just storing coffee in its original packaging. I've tried storing in jars, tupperware, etc., but I find the coffee can't breathe in those airtight containers. Most packaging comes with vents which allow just enough air to circulate.
