It should always be labeled, NO FLAVORED COFFEE GROUND IN THIS MACHINE. It just ruins it for true coffee lovers. I always smell the grinder first. Your dad roasts his own beans?! wow. I'm too darn lazy to even grind the beans at my house.

It consists of filling a coffee filter just about half way FULL with folgers something or other that I buy in bulk. It comes out nice and inky black and they drink it like water. For the longest time I was just adding crazy amounts of sugar and milk to make it drinkable and then I decided to run my own pot of french vannila before they come in.<BR/><BR/>WHOA!! You'd think we put arsenic in it when they ran the pot of regular coffee. They bitched for about two weeks until I finally just gave up. <BR/><BR/>Your hubby put that cat in your car? AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW he sure loves you, that's so sweet!<BR/><BR/>BTW I now platonically love you for melting the spatula and not knowing. That is beautiful.D-HORhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17129358345881440358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7225814182687100969.post-79032384948208639682007-08-16T20:07:00.000-07:002007-08-16T20:07:00.000-07:00'Flavored' coffee? Yuck! Why not just drink that a...'Flavored' coffee? Yuck! Why not just drink that artificially flavored syrup - the stuff they soak the beans in - by itself. Maybe in between sips of the real thing. I stopped going to a particular coffee shop because, one too many times, they ground the beans I'd selected for my first cup-o-the-day in the grinder that was used for the flavored coffee. Nothing like the dissappointment of driving down the road at 5:30AM, anticipating that first sip of Sumatra, or aged Indonesian, when ... yuck! ... Freakin' hazelnut again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
