You're omitting the roast date. It shld be stamped on the bag, too much trouble to look?

I've found a growing expense that benefits coffee.
R/O water.
(I'm sure it's just assumed amongst some of you by now).
I tried it to combat scale buildup and much improved flavor was enjoyed as well.
The standard is day old Sumatra from a local roastery (lasting about a week per bag) fresh ground fine w/ a grocery store burr grinder (long story) through a drip maker and straight to vacuum pot.
Not the epitome, but a nice standard.
I envy you folks w/ a home roaster, although I've heard some people use an old hot air popcorn maker to do it so I might give it a shot.

Hot, 1 sugar, splash of cream. If it tastes like sugar or is as white as milk, get it the F away from me. Don't even mention whipped cream, caramel or flavored creamer, I might slap you.

A friend do a dry rubbed brisket once. Coffee, chili powder, s&p, brown sugar, cayenne, garlic, onion powder, I'm sure some other stuff. Was bomb AF. I think it worked good because of the slow cook, really allowed the coffee to come out. I think it would burn on a steak. Give it a try sometime.

No, but as I said in my first post: I use beans within 1-2 weeks of the roast date. What is not computing? LOL

Get a good carafe. I did a bunch of reading and ended up getting a Nissan-Thermos glass lined, vacuum carafe I had to order from Europe , I think it's different than just the Thermos brand, idk, couldn't find it in the states. Either way it keeps coffee steaming hot till the next morning and is still warm the second morning. I'm a blasphemer, I make a pot and it lasts me 3-4 days, I can't be bothered brewing coffee every morning, not to mention the sound of beans grinding annoys the F out of me first thing in the morning..
