I'm in the same boat as Will. I enjoy coffee and have been studying the threads on coffee and taking notes in chat when the topic turns to coffee, but am a novice when it comes to knowing anything about coffee, other than if I like it when I'm drinking it or not. I remember I used to enjoy the commercial crap they serve us at work, but lately, I have been "over it", so to say. When I first started drinking coffee, I adulterated it with cream and sugar. But now, I prefer to drink it black, so that I can taste it. I think I'll be exploring the coffee world in the next few months, so thanks to Mark and everyone else for sharing your knowledge. This seems like when I first found this site, except instead of skipping a desktop humidor and going for the coolerdor, I'll be skipping the blade grinder and going for a conical burr grinder. Right? lol
