Hi Stephen,

Lots of similarities between the flavor possibilities of coffee and wine indeed. I’ve not yet had the desire to roast my own beans but it is certainly cheaper to buy green beans. If you’re into getting the most out of coffee you might be a bit crazy like the rest of us… or should I say obsessed and I guess the question is there such thing as too far for a fresh cup of coffee.

My guess is your Starbucks question would be better answered by the marketing department then a specialist at the near end of the bean like Sherry.

Thanks for the comments and reading DSOC!

Sorry about the Morning Joi instead of Joe My eldest daughter Joi just contacted me over the internet so I can blame her instead of my virtual spell checker hehe

Oh that looks like fun. Might have enjoyed that more back in my traveling days along Calinoria’s coast than all the wine tasting rooms I viewed during each trip down from Oregon. Is there or would there be any reason a regular joi would want to roast his own beans at home? Also to note it was a gal that worked for Starbucks that helped me on & off for a year trying to understand and find a coffee I could handle in taste with my medical change in tasting {Gold Coast Bold is my favorite right now} even tho they changed it to Morning Joe.

I have a question that Sherry Dunbar might be able to answere for me.. Why is it that Starbucks sells all of there coffee choices in whole bean 12oz but the Morning Joi {MSNBC} I can not find it in whole bean other than the larger bag? They offer it in a pre ground 12oz but the grind is to fine for my French Press and requires me to save the amount I use per cup storage method differently. I don’t mind some researching and or testing but each time I spend doing this costs me and not easy to do on a forced Medical retirement income.
