If you're getting into great tasting coffee, imo you need to think about roasting your own beans (or finding a local roaster that keeps a FRESHLY roasted supply), as that is the key to flavor. l've gotten spoiled with my own coffee over the past few years...I now home roast 'green beans' weekly (ordered online at roughly half the price of roasted, no particular favorite). I've got several that I keep on hand, burr grind 'em right before I brew, and am just really getting into it, but freshly roasted beans is what it's all about
