Have fun trying to sleep.

Your next step, if you haven't done so already, is to buy a coffee grinder. If you grind fresh beans right before you brew them, it makes for a better coffee.

The freshest way that I know of to get good beans is go to whole foods. They roast their coffee in the store. They def. have some good rich flavored stuff. Summatra is one of my favorites.

Because of the strong flavor, I like most of Starbucks coffee. It helps that I have a family member who works for the corporate offices in Seattle, so she sends me free coffee to try.

Later on, you should buy a french press and try brewing coffee that way. It is so easy and seems to make the coffee taste better.

I have been a Community Dark Roast guy for years, but, there is another local Coffee that stands the test. River Roads is a small shop Coffee roasted in BR and very good. Give it a try........

Riverblend Acadian. Very good and at most grocery stores.

Coffee is definitely one of those things like beer and olive oil that everyone has a favorite. This means you are going to have to find out what works for you. I love coffee and have tried many of them and my favorite is Hawaiian Kona coffee. To find out what you like the best you might want to go to a local coffee shop. If you live in Baton Rouge Highland coffee by LSU is great. Some things to start with is if you want a lot of flavor try darker roasts Roberto beans but if you are looking for just high caffeine content try a light roast. Also if you are looking to brew at your house whole beans are the way to go they will remain fresh longer and by grinding them before each use you will extract the full flavor of the bean. Also store your whole beans in a air tight container at room temperature. I hope that helps you

My plan is buying freshly roasted beans from Whole Foods or Highland Coffee in 8oz bags until I find a roast that I really like, or maybe I will just continue to vary it up. I really like having a new coffee every week or so. Its not terribly expensive but it is more expensive than buying Community or River Roads.
