    Ily is pretty darned good, and that's exactly where I prefer to find mine...

    I have simple coffee taste. Actually just made a cup of Folgers 1885 Trailblazer.

    I kind of like the Boyers Rocky Mountain Thunder too.

    It?s more about the low acidity of the coffee for me. Dark roast aka burnt coffee will make my stomach hurt after 1-2 cups. Local light freshly roasted coffee, well I can drink it until I can?t sleep.

    Lighter coffee has more caffeine. I learned that from BRC.

    We prefer Illy in the espresso machine. I don't use it much (Americano's are my thing) but the wife likes her Latte's.

    It is damn good and worth it.

    So far since morning, I drank:
    2 can of LaCroix
    1 12oz water (while at the rec center)

    Planning to drink 2 cups of coffee, and 1 more LaCroix by end of the night.

    Question is , is it going to be Keurig Starbucks Pikes Peak, Hioliday Blend, Blue Label coffee, or Nespresso.
    Dunkin Donuts. Fresh grind Pot or Pods for our regular coffees.
