   KW: My wife's favorite bean nowadays is Peets Alma De La Tierra. We buy ir    
   KW: ground, mostly because I'm lazy and make a huge mess when I grind.   
      
   KW: We use a kettle, 2 Melitta cones, #4 paper filters (briskly washed first)    
   KW: and it's a half-decent cuppa for not much time.   
      
   KW: When I have a little more time, I have a Moka pot and a Briel Multi-Pro    
   KW: espresso maker that I've had for about 15 years. cafe Bustelo is still my    
   KW: espresso of choice - cheap, rough, and quite a kick. Nothing's quite like    
   KW: it.   
      
   Peets is good coffee for sure. I have only had it once (rather, one bag)   
   brought back as a gift from Seattle. I am up in Canada. The best readily   
   available coffee I have been onto lately is "Kicking Horse" Coffee.   
   Particularly the "Smart Ass" blend. That is one thing about the coffee ritual,   
   is the time involved. We have an espresso maker that has never even been used   
   and I think we have had it for 1 or 2 years! The laziness is strong with me   
   too.
