We buy coffee from Boyd's up in Portland, OR. We like the "Coffee Shop" blend, and I have really been digging it in our Presto Percolator.

I was placing an order with Walmart and I'd rather have surgery with no anesthesia than use the pick up at the local store. Needed to add a few bucks to the order to get the free shipping and Bustelo sealed the deal
Did you use the same measure of Bustelo as your normal grind?

In my little re-usable keurig filter thing I pretty much do (I like it strong in the morning) in a French press I ease it back a bit

I was at Costco a couple days ago so I treated myself to a bag of major dickason's blend

Had to post this one.. The wife, kids and I go thrift shopping on Saturday mornings. I normally don't find a whole lot, but this morning I struck gold.
Been looking for one of these Corning Percolators for ages(like my grandma used to have on her counter), with the removable element and clear glass top. I finally found one, 5.99.. and it works like brand new.
Having a cup of "Great Value Doughnut Shop" in it, and it is surprisingly amazing.

That sound along with the smell of the perking coffee gives it's own little dopamine rush. I also have to say.. I don't know who Walmart is buying coffee from but this stuff is good. I normally buy some shade grown, fair trade, cultivated and cared for by beautiful virgins, hipster blend roasted up in Portland. It's been hit or miss though to find it. I was at Walmart the other day and saw this sitting on the shelf and it said 100% Arabica on it.. gave it a try, and honestly this stuff makes the stuff I was drinking taste like dirty bathwater.
