Atsa Bigga differance.About the biggest difference is they us a courser ground coffee than preks or drippers.
Also they are an ITALIAN INVENTION...Not french....Go Figure......
Could be...
One of em kinda looked like a tootsie roll.
The beans didn't like it much when I threw a handfull into the water.

I cant take it anymore...
This guy I am roomin with makes the absolute worst coffee and each cup is accompanied by a tablespoon of grounds, He reuses grounds and everytime the filter runneth over into the resevoir and over the top of the filter...
Tomorrow I get a french press and he can chew grounds...I damn near choked on the last cup.

Instant coffee
I am almost beside myself waiting for the press...and I wish I would just quit WHINING!!!
Just like starting out shooting career with a 22...ya gotta start somewhere.My youngest son uses a coffee press and grinds his own beans.
As for me, I don't know if I should admit this in this thread. I don't own a coffee pot of any sort and just drink instant coffee when I want a cup.

22, shmenty too
I sure am not impressed with the strength of the coffee using the same amount of grounds and water as I have been using in the drip type coffee maker.
Back to the drawing board I guess. I sure thought I was gettin into the big guns and here I am shootin squibs.
Doesnt matter what ya start with, just git started. I used to drink 2 heaping tsp of folgers instant in a regular table/dinner cup...not a mug. Now I am using a french press. Unique way to brew weak coffee. Seems like I am going backwards. Anyone else use one? What size grind and how much coffee to use. Those are the questions.Well, I started my shooting 'career' with a GP100 .357 magnum revolver. Try explaining that. My .22 was my second gun.
The press is very nice. It's quick, convenient, doesn't take up a lot of room.

Austin, dont know enuf about whats out there to even guess a price range. I know there are cheaper and some more expensive than 8 OClock. I just want something that tastes like coffee...not charcoal and not a candy store foo-foo juice. Know what I mean?
Make a suggestion...I wont let it come back to haunt you...

Where can I get the brand you mention? I usually do my search thru Amazon but a lot of times the seller is kust a store front through Amazon and has no home address.
Off the point here...FedEx tracking says my new computer should be in today. I also should get my grinder and 2 holsters from HolsterUSA today. Now if the new computer is good, I will be able to practice my quick crossdraw on my old one. I was thinkin about invitin the neighbor over to help me shoot hell out of the old one...to kind of break the ice.
Well, it is now Thursday. FedEx tracking says tomorrow I will get my computer. I didnt believe the thursday or wednesday delivery dates but who kows for sure. But the package is in ty;er and will be here soon.
Austin, I found a lot of links for coffee. I knew it is expensive but didnt know I would have to mortgage the ranch to buy it. I found some duty free stuff that is veryreasonable though so I may try it. I think the french press is for connie sewers...and I aint one. I need a new coffee maker so thats my next purchase.

I am a tight wad but there is a place for this press and more brands, even if they are a bit more expensive than 8 oclock coffee. I have to experiment a bit but I think what I will find is just a bunch of darn good tasting coffee brands. There definitely is a difference.
Well, I have no idea what a HEB is but I do notice more flavors even in a weaker brew. 2 scoops has excellent flavor but 3 knocks my tastebuds for a loop...and that's good. It is a totally different flavor...almost spelled it flavour.
