I just ordered two pounds of each of these. Completely different styles. If I can’t taste the difference in these two shots then I’m fricking something up.

I plan to use these for espresso shots with an occasional pour over.

You asking the wrong mother fricker. All Starbucks taste burnt to me. Even their blonde roast tastes burnt.

It really is crazy how bad the coffee is there.

Even at higher end places I occasionally get a bad cup of light roast, but much less frequently than Starbucks.

My little nook. Not including my cold brew set up

Ya this is the breville barista express

You just use it in a drip coffee maker? I feel like grinding the beans fresh is a game changer.

No doubt IMO.

One tip is how to leverage the strength of the dollar to save a couple hundred bucks. You can order some of the good stuff from a retailer in Italy, Espresso Coffee Shop. I think that makes the stuff grey market in the US, so I wouldn’t order an espresso machine from them, but I just ordered a Eureka Specialita. Even with shipping it was about $180 below the cost of any domestic retailer. I’ll let you know when it comes in if it was a legit deal.
