Great, something else for me to start sending more money on ... my own roaster. :bonkers: What kind of power cable do you use on your roaster Jeff?

Just finished roasting four oz of Gualamalen Finca Candelaria to City Express roast. Now if I could stop eating them like candy I might get to make some coffee in a day or so...:satisfying:

Dave... Just a plain old stock cord.

Joe... If you use dark chocolate it would actually be a healthy snack.

Roasted a pound of Brazil Bob-O-Link Moka Peaberry this morning myself.

I picked up some coffee from a small grocer around here that carries a somewhat local coffee. My God it's awful!!! :S I guess it's time to buy online.

I know all the coffee connoisseurs will moan, but I just picked up a Keurig VUE. The Italian Roast is terrific. I also bought a solofill cup so I can grind my own beans and use them. I consider the Keurig VUE considerably better than the older K cup Keurg system.

I finally had a decent cup of coffee this morning. Starbucks Sumatra through a french press. Tasty!

Mike, can you use anyone's pods with this or is it compatible with VUE only?

 

[MDP]

I am enjoying fresh ground Peets Aged Sumatra !! Through my Technivorm coffeemaker ! I also own a French Press,and enjoy that as well !!

I just bought a "Solofill" for Keurig VUE. www.solofill.com

You can put your own coffee in it. Of course, you can buy any VUE cup already filled with ground coffee.

Doug, It uses Vue only pods. Even the usual K-Cup won't work with the Vue.

True. I find the VUE more flexible. I have the old Keurig and found the cup sizes wanting. The new VUE has a coffee thermos/travel mug option.

With the Solofill for VUE (make sure you don't buy their K cup one by accident), you can put your own ground coffee in it and as little or as much as you need.

I like a particular Kona coffee, so for me, this is great. I also keep some Starbucks Sumatra around when I need a real jolt!
