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

That's what Evren does...orders green coffee beans from all over the world, does his own roasting, makes his own blends, etc....me? I just grind already roasted beans. Usually bought at Costco... I'm sending Evren a link to this thread, it seems to be right up his alley. I mean, how many of you spent months restoring an old espresso maker?
