My preference for good coffee is a local dark roast. I brew it in a Dutch Moccamaster and keep it warm in a vacuum insulated carafe or my dented 35 year-old Nissan Thermos for hunting or fishing. The old hot plated Mr. Coffee can flat ruin a pot of coffee if left to cook. I understand the criticism of Starbucks, but they introduced a wide swath of interest in decent, brewed coffee and saved generations from being stuck with instant coffee or some of the canned brown sawdust pawned off as coffee. At least for this hour, coffee is considered good for you. I'm on my second cup since crawling out of the rack. <g>
