KW: My wife's favorite bean nowadays is Peets Alma De La Tierra. We buy ir 
KW: ground, mostly because I'm lazy and make a huge mess when I grind.

KW: We use a kettle, 2 Melitta cones, #4 paper filters (briskly washed first) 
KW: and it's a half-decent cuppa for not much time.

KW: When I have a little more time, I have a Moka pot and a Briel Multi-Pro 
KW: espresso maker that I've had for about 15 years. cafe Bustelo is still my 
KW: espresso of choice - cheap, rough, and quite a kick. Nothing's quite like 
KW: it.

Peets is good coffee for sure. I have only had it once (rather, one bag) brought back as a gift from Seattle. I am up in Canada. The best readily available coffee I have been onto lately is "Kicking Horse" Coffee. Particularly the "Smart Ass" blend. That is one thing about the coffee ritual, is the time involved. We have an espresso maker that has never even been used and I think we have had it for 1 or 2 years! The laziness is strong with me too.
