Unfortunately, Phoenix and Las Vegas aren’t regular stops for me. But with family in Boston, Cleveland and Fort Lauderdale, there are enough opportunities to keep running. And, in a pinch, it’s not too expensive to ship on a per pound basis if I order 5-10 pounds at a time...
The stuff they sell in Costco and other stores with the “DD” brand name (orange bags) just ain’t the same, by the way.

You are not alone! You have me and you have the “ultimate Jew” for company.

Make your expresso at home, use a medium roast blend like Seattle Mountain Blend. Toss the very first second of the pull and you will have a coffee that puts starbucks to shame. The sour flavors are all in the first black second of the pull. The bitters are on the last part. So short pull your coffee and you will not believe how good it can be.
Never again will I buy starbucks, first because they use their profits to destroy my country, secondly because there coffee is bitter and awful.
What do you mean by “Toss the very first second of the pull ?” Do you mean throw away whatever comes through the filter at first?
I don’t know the intricacies of brewing coffee; it’ll be good to learn from someone who knows that they are talking about.
I have to go a little farther, but I stop at Dunn Brothers. They've sponsored a promotional campaign in which 10 percent of purchases go to a designated charity. When it was Cradle of Hope's turn to be that charity, I frequented Dunn Brothers even more often.
