Nice Variety
You like some more than other, and I definitely could have done without the decaf.

Some really good! Some really yuk!
The sampler is a great idea. But, be prepared--some of the pods are awful. Since, they only ship two of each flavor, you couldn't pull a double shot and then share it with anyone for comparison. Sometimes, I like to sit and taste expresso with a friend--almost like a wine tasting with espresso. Also, the shipping cost was really high! It is an interesting way to try different brands, but keep careful notes.

What People Talk About Coffee Roasters »

A question for coffee roasters. Do you know why Starbucks over roasts all their coffee?

Bob Zaunere answered:
I've been trying to answer that question for nearly 10 years. I stopped drinking their coffee and roasted and grinding my own at home. And, people still buy that crap like it doesn't taste like metallic ash, just because it has the starbucks label on it.

People are sheep.
jos2thehua asked on Jan 19, 2010:

What are some good/unique local coffee roasters?

Eolra answered:
What do you mean by local? Local to your area? We don't know where you are from, bud.

Does anyone know where to get manuals for commercial coffee roasters?

Lucille answered:
Google is of no help here... Maybe ask some experts to find it, i.e. http://manualfox.com
They find you nearly every manual on earth. It´s not free, but sometimes worthy. Don´t forget to send them model number and pictures of your machine.

To Coffee Roasters. Why does Starbucks over roast their coffee beans?

singletrack65 answered:
Actually, your last sentence answers the question.

A light roast allows the subtle flavors of the bean to show through. As beans from the same place will taste slightly different from year to year (yet alone all the different places they get them from), blending and roasting dark helps get rid of those subtle flavors for a controllable "uniform" flavor. The idea is that the coffee in Chicago will taste exactly like that in New York.

I'd rather go to a small coffee shop that has a unique taste than go to a coffee equivalent of McDonald's.
