Where do you buy your beans?

I've been drinking Killer Beans coffee for years and was wondering what some of the other options are for buying beans?

Thanks, Chris

Green, or roasted?

For green coffee, Coffee Bean Corral gets a heck of a lot of my business, and Sweet Maria's is another fine outfit that takes care of their customers.

I've just started ordering from Uncle Beanz (who also happens to be a Cigar Man), and have been seriously impressed with the quality of the beans he has and the first-rate customer service I've gotten from him.

If you don't roast your own, Uncle Beanz will do the job for you, roasting and packing the beans only after you order them so you can be assured of getting the freshest coffee possible.

None of these folks pay me to shill for them. I do business with them myself because they consistently deliver top-quality coffee at fair prices with first-rate customer service, simple as that.

Jason.... I'd prefer roasted. Self roasting sounds like a lot of work.

Doug.... Uncle Beanz sounds interesting. Which beans do you recommend? I'm looking for something strong.

T2B.... I guess I need to experience self roasting before I go down that road. Can you recommend an inexpensive roaster?

Thanks guys,
Chris
