I won't be trying any until tomorrow as they just arrived this evening but I'm excited and couldn't wait until I actually brewed them. It'll be my first whole bean coffee. I'll probably need to bust out my small French press though so I can get the grinder figured out with smaller brews. They're only 4 oz sample bags so its not a ton to play around with. I'll make sure to pop back and share thoughts as I try them.

First whole bean coffee? Oh man, welcome to the good stuff.

No matter what coffee purists tell you, the single best change to my daily coffee quality of life was simply going from ground to grinding fresh whole beans every morning. I will never go back.

Isn't that what coffee purists say? There's a roaster here that won't even sell ground coffee, only beans, for example. What do they normally say from your experience?
