Thanks. I do have a French press and will try that. Other than that I have a typical drip coffee maker.

Follow-up question. I have had decent results when I buy whole beans at the supermarket. Certainly hasn't ever been weak like this. Would the potential heat issue not show up with store bought beans?

I still think it has something to do with the grind. It doesn't look like normal ground coffee to me. I had an old cheap blade grinder that created a finer grind.
