I’ve been buying this roasters coffee for over 4 years and have loved everything they sell. Their dark coffee is fabulous.
If you want dark and hi caffeine
Others that are great:
Stocking Mill Coffee
@smcroasters
Please Share and repost
If you are a dark roast lover. Want a full bodied, smooth, and rich brew…
This is an awesome bean and deal.
1 Kilogram (2.2 lbs) for the retards.
Dark or Medium (pssst get dark)
With a cool decal.
This one is their best seller in dark
Some others I love (they have awesome artwork too)
Best medium
Company is based out of Daytona and does 99% of sales online. Can stop by store if in area. Owner does fund raisers for veterans and also fund raises and actually has a team of people to go to disasters. Nothing is 3rd party.
He went to NC last year. Florida hurricane. Buys equipment for disabled jumpers so they can be loaded in jump planes and have that thrill again. Its a long list.
But his coffee is great. He has grown and a few years ago he could have purchased a double sized air roaster but spent more money and just bought 2 of same size he had. Said he didn’t want to jeopardize his quality for speed.
I’ve never had a bad batch. I buy all beans. If you buy grinds just know every order is made to order he does not keep it in shelves. Thats why its so good, all made fresh.

just checked out their website and I noticed they sell in 1 lb, 2, lb, 5 lb quantities but the bags say 12oz. Can you confirm it's actually 16oz lbs?
I just restocked but may try them out next time.

We use two, one is probably 50 years old, and never had a drop of soap in it, just rinsed out with water. The bottom of it is black...

I love my coffee, but I’ve never been picky about a brand. I grew up in a Community Coffee household, but I haven’t bought it myself in years.
I go between Folgers, Maxwell House, and Great Value unless I find something else on sale. I really can’t tell the difference as long as it’s a medium to dark roast.

They are 1lb.
Recently he created a dark roast “sampler” where you could get 4 flavors and those were done in 12oz sizes. But they should be gone however its possible a few remain.
I checked midnight run and it only has 1/2/5 lb sizes to buy.
I can also tell you, if you aren't happy just email the website and he will personally respond and either fix the problem or give money back.
He could easily expand but doesn’t want to. Sometimes orders can take 2 weeks but he makes them fresh so worth the wait. I always order at least a month prior to need.
I was in the Navy and had to drink the worst coffee on planet earth, it came in those big tin cans I think it was 25 lb size. I made it my mission to never drink bad coffee again and ended up finding this guy over 4 years ago. I like good coffee no matter the cost. There may be better coffee out there but I like his and then like what he does to help others.

Coffee percolating in one of those old school percolators always brings back fond and vivid memories of hunting and fishing trips with my grandpa and dad. My great grandparents lived in the house my great great grandparents built when they came over from Czechoslovakia in the late 1870's. When she died in 1993 she was still cooking and making coffee on her woodburning stove when it wasn't too hot.
Great little story that brings back similar memories of my Nana.
Even after she got running water in the house, the cleaned after meal dishes, pots and pans were always dipped in a very large pot of boiling water to kill any germs. She was also very good at killing running foxes with a 22 stealing her chickens.

Go with local non-commercial roasters. If you’re in BR, French Truck or Rêve are great options.

Been drinking Kirkland whole bean French roast ever since I moved away from Lafayette. I like it and it isn't that expensive.

This is the answer, any decent local roaster, fresh beans (within 10-14 days), grind daily.
Even light roasts will be flavorful and have way more depth than any mass produced roaster.

I had a micro roast guy. 1lb at a time. He busy racing cars at Le Mans right now. Not sure he still does the coffee though.
