Yeh, its not bad at all.
Ive had 2x hot brews of it today and, 2x iced.
I quite like it and the price, wow.........
That said, I just got home from my local with another 2 packs.
It don't eat grass, will keep and a great saving to what you will pay for well known supermarket brands

That's a great find, I'm more a tea drinker but have had a pack of that brand not too long ago. Oh, You'll all hate me if I told you what grows wild in the rain Forrest behind my block Yep, All the aribica K7 you could poke a stick at. I bought a small hand cranked green bean husker but it's still like building the harbour bridge with match stick. Super charged coffee though, being under rain Forrest canopy, It makes for a high caffeine content. I roast in a brevel popcorn maker Its very much like Barbecue really. Lots of effort for a small win of pure joy.

Its great...
I have only just recently discovered the world of fresh coffee, brewed at home.
Been a home instant drinker all of my life.....
Nothing compares.
And the beauty about it, ya don't need to spend dollars on a machine that takes up valuable kitchen bench space, just, a simple SS Coffee steeper thingie
5 minutes of draining boiling water, and your done

Shayne, there is a reason why coffee is grown, picked and processed in countries where a dollar a day is living it high.

Yeah, there was some effort a few years back I think to get an Australian coffee to market, price was prohibitive. My Italian friends would approve more of your coffee making method Bill, but really both produce a good cup. Guy I know who is a real aficionado of coffee and has more money than sense went out to buy what he called a real barrista machine a few years ago, came back with one of those pots on the advice of his local coffee shop and hasn't regretted it. Nothing really beats coffee the way smokey can get it, with effort. I worked in Kenya once long time ago, up in the hills the pickers will pick, roast, crush, not grind, and boil up coffee all in one run, strained out of a sort of wok I guess. Absolutely unreal But it's still a lot of work for a few cups of Joe Cheers
