floydpink: I bought back 8 bags with me. I love that coffee!

I can help with this though I feel like I shouldn't 'cause I'm a n00b squared at this coffee business as well.
It is best to transfer your coffee into a thermos or similiar vessel after brewing time and pressing. The reason for this is that the extraction process will somewhat continue the whole time the grounds remain in contact with the water. This can make your coffee strong and bitter.
Here is a link to buy what is a very nice burr grinder that fits your price range perfectly:

This is the same grinder tzaddi has posted pictures of in this thread except in a black finish. The outside is a little cheaper on the one I linked, but it's what's inside that counts. It seems to be alot of grinder for the money.
