I'd like to try something really different.

Get some whole bean coffee within a few days of it being roasted, and brew it in a French press or with a pour-over type drip brewer. Fresh coffee + proper water temperature = something very different from Maxwell House Lite. Since getting into coffee I've found that different batches of coffee will taste wildly different; the exact same beans can even taste very different depending on how they are roasted.

My intro to fresh coffee was through Killer Beans. I also found a local chain that fresh roasts twice a week and bought from them, too. I've been roasting my own for a while now, and love it.

Have fun trying new stuff!
