Not quite, getting close, though.

I always use Tully's medium roast in either my French Press or Moka Pot, but I'm not rich enough for a burr grinder, I use a blade style grinder.

I know Jack Sh!t about coffee, whether it be US, South American or European......All I know is that Americans should be kept the f#ck away from tea. It's TEA for Christ's sake! How can you manage to f#ck TEA up the way you do!!? Ask for cup of tea in a public place here (Well, I don't do that anymore, I'm not frigging stupid) and you get a soggy bag of crap in warm water or ice cold monkey semen!!



breathe...breathe.....breathe.....

LG, you gotta stop ordering the ice cold monkey semen! We Americans don't understand your brand of English, you have to order differently. But like you, I hate sweet tea and iced tea. They don't serve 'generic soggy bag of crap' out in my part of the woods, they actually ask if you want green, white, black, etc. then the brand name.

Tea doesn't belong in a bag anyway. I am just as snobby about my tea as I am about my coffee. I don't want something that has been ground to a powder and left to sit for months, I like to actually see tea leaves when I make tea.

I've been considering getting into real nice teas, but I have a bunch of tea bags left over from a costco trip about a year ago that I'm still trying to go through, and I fear that if I get as crazy about tea as I have about beer, cheese, and artisan bread, that I'll never enjoy the crappy tea that I'm satisfied with now. Luckily that hasn't progressed into wine yet, that gets expensive.

Hell the beans they sell at Coscos in 2.5 pound bags for 8 bucks is 100X better then forgers or maxwell house.

I ended up with a TON of tea that I wasn't really willing to drink. Luckily I found someone that was happy to take it off my hands.

I see you found the right thread...
