I grind my own beans too. It does make a difference in the flavor. And it's possible to get the whole beans at the market from a number of coffee places that roast their own locally, so they are even more fresh.

However, black is not an option for me, thanks all the same. It cries out for half -n-half, or even better, heavy whipping cream. (!)
Yeah, now there's a good cup of coffee! Lol

if it is good coffee and fresh brewed
i'll have it black.

the instant folgers we normally have
here i'll put vanilla, creamer and sugar
in it.

i'm only drinking coffee one cup a week
or two. caffiene habit gives me headaches.

i usually drink herbal teas or hot chocolate
(which does have some caffiene but not
as much and i still don't drink it every day).

for hot chocolate i usually put some green
or red curry paste in there to give it a little
kick.

p.s. no employer i ever worked for had free
anything. we'd chip in to buy supplies... if
you wanted something special you brought it
in yourself.

I don't drink coffee, just Iced tea, but I do add a bit of coffee to my tea.

Milk, half/half or cream. Good coffee I can drink black.

How do you grind your beans? Had a cheap grinder that didn’t last long. Cheap metal grinder

I just use a small inexpensive grinder that one of my boys gave me for Christmas one year. (Proctor Silex) It's been working just fine for about 4 years. It has metal blades which is a no-no if you're a coffee snob. I'm not sure my taste buds have the IQ to detect the difference between metal blades and a burr grinder.
