Never too good for 'truck stop' coffee, but started looking into ordering & roasting my own green beans in an air-popcorn popper after a buddy gave me a bag of his own roasting.

Starbucks adopted homosexuals as a mascot because gay is chic now, a la 'Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.' Fine. Good for them. Come out with Old Dirt Road Brew for all I care. Not interested in foo-foo coffee anyway.

I bought a home roaster from these folks:

Zach and Dannis home coffee roasters

After roasting your own coffee at home, even the (fresh) coffee stand product tastes burnt and oxidized.
