In a few weeks, I'm driving out to the East Coast with the family for a little vacation. However, after spending a weekend in Chicago, I realized this is going to pose a significant problem.

The problem is how will I get good coffee? I was forced to drink hotel coffee all weekend and don't think I could make it through the 10 days we'll be gone.

If there will be an in-room coffeemaker, you can at least take some good coffee with you...

Good coffee is only good for 3-4 days. Plus, I'll then need to take a grinder.

Sorry. My teeth can't roast coffee.

Joe...tell the board where you're going to be back east and maybe some people can steer you to some fine coffee houses, etc. in their areas.

Listen up you coffee pussy, just take your ass to StarBucks like the rest of us.

As of now, I don't buy into this good coffee is only good for four days. Roast up some extra and seal it gutentheit. You can survive on five or six day-old coffee as opposed to Folgers Hotel blend cricket piss.

Just bring the damned grinder with you, or grind and seal. I don't advocate CharBucks...I only drank it while Daddy was in the hospital because there was one in the lobby brewing espresso.

Buy a bigger vehicle if you can't fit the paraphernalia in it. Maybe you could come up with a coffee-kit for travelling; lined with spanish cedar, of course.
