Ground coffee
16 Answers
Seeing Ann's post about coffee beans, prompted me, can anyone recommend a really nice ground coffee. I have been buying different ones to try them out, but have yet to find one that is perfect. I like about a 4 strength one, but it needs to taste smooth, some are just too bitter. It needs to taste of coffee, some are so weak and taste of nothing. What's your favourite?

They also found that most people that went into Starbucks were unhappy that they couldn't order a standard grind each time they came in... there wasn't anything that they could depend on always being available. They remedied that by producing a middle of the road grind named, appropriately 'Pike Place' (since that was the site of the original store in Seattle).
Now one can always depend on finding Pike Place... it's a medium blend, still just strong enough to support my "leave room for cream, please" order and the use of three sugars (I know, I know). No bitterness but very pleasing...
