I don’t make coffee super often… because I’m an absolute heretic and drink Java Monster or Cafe Mocha Soylent and occasionally hate myself… but when I do I want a good cup, something not too bitter or burnt-tasting but with a good flavor.

So I’m looking for something that is… y’know, fancier than Folgers but not exactly Kopi Luak either.

My current go-to is Lavazza Intenso. I just got an aeropress (thanks to all the folks on here who recommended it) and I have a hand burr grinder … somewhere…

So. What should I be trying, assuming I want tasty coffee that isn’t priced like it’s made of gold?

Really useful if the water in your area is hard. It makes a lot of difference in the taste.
