Whole bean coffee

Whole bean coffee
Does Starbucks sell whole bean coffee in their stores?

I know they sell it online, but I dont really go to starbucks much and was wondering if they also had a selection of whole coffee beans for sale in the stores? If they do, do they have a wide variety?

Also.. while you’re here… :) i’m getting this coffee for my dad for fathers day and he didnt have a preference except to say he didnt want anything that was dark or bitter.. any suggestions?

Get your dad Breakfast Blend – It’s the lightest body, mildest coffee at Starbucks. It’s bright, clean, and the coffee of choice for people who enjoy coffee anytime of the day.

The Latin American coffees tend to be roasted much lighter, and; ergo, they are less robust and don’t give that “bitter” taste.

Starbucks has a huge variety. Our coffees include Breakfast Blend, House Blend, Pike Place Roast, Guatemala Antigua, Organic Shade Grown Mexico, Serena Organic Blend, Cafe Estima Blend, Yukon Blend, Gold Coast Blend, Arabian Mocha Sanani, Kenya, Etheopia Sidamo, Espresso Roast, Italian Roast, French Roast, Komodo Dragon Blend, Sulawesi, Sumatra, Caffe Verona, Brazil Ipanima Bourbon, and Colombia Narino Supremo. Some will have limited offerings like: Kopelani and Organic Peru Sumatra.

Every non-Licensed store has at least 1 Coffee Master and all baristas are required to do some coffee tasting while doing their Barista 101 when hired! Just ask if there’s a Coffee Master there or ask for a barista who knows a lot about our coffee.

Best coffee press

Best coffee press
What is the best brand of coffee press for making coffee?

I have a Black Bodum 6 cup and the go up to 8, basically all good, Bodum is just a nice quality type. I buy my coffee at my local grocery store in whole bean form and grind it for each pot, do not use do fine or you get the muddy residue like greek or turkish coffee in your cup.

Medium fine is o.k even an all purpose grind, the best thing is like with tea, add your coffee and then the boiling water, allow it to steep, then slowly push the plunger down and serve, but it does get strong as it sits so the last one can be a be heady.
