I like a smoother lighter roast and have tried a bunch of them. Keep coming back to the Starbucks Veranda blend.
Donut Shop!
I’ve tried a lot over the years and many were just crap, but I’ve settled on these three:
Starbucks Pike Place is by far my favourite.
McDonald’s McCafe is second.
Timothy Columbia Excelencia comes in a close third.
I always have a few of these on hand and mix them up so as to have the variety.
To date I haven’t found a good decaf, always have to touch them up with Kaluha to make them drinkable.
I’ve found the Barista Prima Italian Dark Roast from Costco to be excellent. I haven’t seen it available in store in my area, but I order it online. I think it’s also available through Amazon.
It’s a full bodied strong coffee. It’s surprising that a coffee that good can come from a Keurig type machine.
Do they have Maverik convenience stores there? If they do I guarantee you’ll like their coffee if you like black silk, tastes pretty darn close to the exact same.
I’m curious, is there a way to adjust how strong a cup come out of a keurig? I don’t own one, but I’ve had several cups of coffee given to me by people who do and it is always watery and weak.
