Do You Prefer To Grind or Prepackaged Coffee

[jenbear09]

I love my coffee, it's what I look forward to when I get up in the morning. I buy the whole beans so that I can grind it myself. I find it to be fresher than the prepacked coffee

Jen,

I love my fresh ground coffee. The main difference is the aroma. Ground coffee just cannot compare.

I have never owned a coffee grinder so no, I don't grind my coffee. My son used to all the time and swore it was much better. After his baby was born, he stopped grinding because he didn't want to wake her up. lol. Now that she is a year old, he still isn't grinding. I guess he got out of the habit.

I haven't ground beans lately, mainly because I just went for the convenience of using pre-ground coffee.

But I definitely look forward to a couple cups of coffee in the morning. I like it black.

I prefer the taste of fresh ground coffee beans but don't always have the time to do it so I end up buying beans and some already ground coffee. I guess it is silly to buy both but when I have the time I want to savor the best in the taste of my coffee.

I prefer to grind my own beans. Having said that, we just purchased a coffeemaker with the individual cups that make just one cup at a time. I'm pretty addicted to that now, and will probably never go back!

I prefer fresh ground coffee beans myself. They taste better to me as far as I am concerned. I guess it all comes to what you prefer the most.

I prefer fresh ground. Not only that, I like to buy my beans light roasted so I can pop them in my own oven and toast them a bit just before grinding. Otherwise I like to get very small quantities of whole beans from a local coffee roasting business called Schuils. They are roasted the same day you buy them.

Grinding my own.. Really, is there any kind of debate about this?

I don't like coffee. What!!? Yep. it is true! I like the smell of it, though.

Anyhow, ironically enough, I worked in a coffee shop and everyone there seemed to love the ground coffee beans and that's what most people bought.
