I have a friend who roasts his own (another post around here somewhere about that), and it's to die for.
My regular brew is
Peet's Arabian Mocha Sanani, either through the espresso machine or ground extra fine dripped. I do NOT like dark roasts because they are too bitter for me. Just grind it fine to get that Turkish effect like C1ay sez....if it takes a while to get through that filter, that's just fine!
Of course she's shooting Freeze-Dried Folgers,
