Jerry hooked me up with BRCC and I've been digging it ever since!

It's very good. The whole bean is the freshest I've ever seen.

I started with a 30 day delivery of the 2 bag best of BRCC went to the 3 bag now I'm going to go to the 4 bag..haha. I've started drinking a lot of coffee. I feel its probably better and cheaper than the Monsters I was drinking. I was drinking probably 1 to 2 energy drink a day. Now I drink 16-32oz of coffee a day. I've also gotten several of my coworkers hooked on it. They all made fun of me for my coffee choice until they tried it.

And real men drink coffee.

I guess I'm growing up..haha. I used to foof my coffee up with flavored creamers but not anymore. I do put a little half n half sometimes but when I leave for work I fill my BRCC tumbler with black coffee of which roast I happen to have on for the day. I've also only used the Aeropress and not the Keurig (except for the hot water) for the last 10 months. Fresh ground and that thing are amazing. So much so I put together a kit for the road. It's a .50 cal ammo can and it holds the following: Aeropress w/scoop, filters, and stir paddle, jet boil with French press, Java press hand grinder, and an 18oz hydro flask to hold my beans air tight and temperature controlled. I know it may be going too far but after drinking fresh ground aeropressed coffee it's hard to go without. And they say people who vape are bad..haha.

Yeah once I get home I'll take some pics of it opened up. I made it for camping and to take to work for out of town assignments.

Y'all turned me on to BRCC as well. Can't drink anything else, anymore. Just not the same.

Love the set up!

I just found this thread or I would have alerted you guys earlier. But, check your local Starbucks for East Timor Tatamailau. It is quite literally one of the best beans I have ever had. Just incredible. But, be quick it is running out at most locations. :rock:

You are not kidding.
One of the Starbucks that's on my daily rotation suggested a Clover of this. Holy shit. I haven't been floored by a cup of coffee like that in a long time. Especially from a Starbucks.
Great stuff!

Yeah I've taken my electric grinder and and all the stuff with me to hotels before. I'm sure my neighbors loved the sound of that at 6am..haha

Thanks. I just put it together so I'll see how it all works but I think it should be fine. Lot less cumbersome that a target bag with an electric grinder, measuring cup, thermometer, and all the aeropress stuff..haha. I'm hoping the hydroflask works OK for keeping the beans fresh. My concern was temperature with them sitting in the compartment on an engine in the desert heat. I got this one for free as my coworker decided to use it for a chew spotter. He threw it away but I figured its stainless steel so it'll be fine cleaned in the dishwasher. Scrubbed it good and no smell of Copenhagen at all...haha.

this. starbucks for me is a matter of convenience. they make quality coffee conveniently. rarely does it blow me away. but, it is even less likely to completely disappoint. (note: i don't drink frappes, iced machiatos, basically any of their high sugary nonsense).

but, these beans blew me away.

Tottaly.

That's me. Everyday it's just an easy stop for a small dark roast. No nonsense. Just a plain cup. I did try a clover of the Ethiopian today. Really good also. So I bought a bag of beans of each.
