    Cleaning Supplies

    Hey, Not sure where this would fall so here it is: I am just a guy who has a press and a drip machine at home. Not in a shop, but was wondering what you would recommend as far as cleaner or dishwashing soap. I have noticed that some soaps do leave an after taste. Obviously this can be the case...

    Painfully Noobish

    Blast! My first topic and it flew out into the cyber space and nose dived into insignificance. I was sort of hoping for some kind of feedback other than a link, but realistically who wants to type all that out when they can just link it. :-D

    Your favorite coffees (all coffee lovers participate)

    I would like to say that Ethiopian is a great coffee. Kona is good as well. Any coffee that has a distinct earthy taste.

    Painfully Noobish

    Well I am a new guy to the scene. Have a great love for coffee that dates back to a couple years ago. I have evolved from the early days of cheap coffee to now drinking some moderatly good coffees. Anyway, looking for a good site that would breakdown some of the coffees of the world and what...

    coffee beans from an animal's bottom?!!

    Feeding a Luwak bourbon. That would be interesting. What could one call such a place that did that? "Drunkin Luwak Farm? " Think of the danger. Trying to tend to hung over Luwak's. Think I'll just stick to simple Boubon Coffee :D I know this might be off subject, but since you were...

    coffee beans from an animal's bottom?!!

    I fully agree that taste is up to the person. Thanks for the info. To be honest and perhaps that is very obvious, my knowledge of coffee is not that broad. I got into different coffees about a year ago. Part of the reason I jumped on this site is to see what else is out there beyond the...

    coffee beans from an animal's bottom?!!

    I noticed on your site that you had several arabica choices. What do you look for in a coffee? How do you prep it? I personally am more interested in a nuttier taste from the bean than a fruity taste. I prep it simply with grinder and press pot. Course that probably sounds like a novice...

    coffee beans from an animal's bottom?!!

    So if the process of mouth to butt does not really change anything then why is it so prized? Maybe I misunderstood. It does change it but it doesn't. I guess what is really funny for me is I live in Rural America. So if I were to tell people that they were getting coffee whose process...

    coffee beans from an animal's bottom?!!

    Have any of you tried it? If so how does it really taste? And how do you overcome the thought that it has actually exited the Luwak's rear along with other digested parts? Sure it is cleaned and roasted, but the thought of it all.

    coffee beans from an animal's bottom?!!

    Re: Luwak Coffee You guys need to check out this site if you have not already. It shows a gift box with a bag of beans and on the left a turd shaped cluster of beans. Makes me want to go right out and get some of that coffee. :?

    My thoughts on Starbucks

    I would have to disagree about the cost. Sure $200 dollars for a bottle of wine is a lot, but if you add it up coffee can get costly for the normal person. If you stop at your local coffee shop (a good one and not speedway) and spend four bucks on a drink and then say you are a kind soul and...

    My thoughts on Starbucks

    I am in the general Lexington, Ky. area. I would go to SB if there was no other place to go. So often I ended up at Barnes and Noble in town. But just today I found a nice place called Lexington Coffee and Tea. Nice to find it b/c SB is not my favorite by far.
