<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I kn ow a former co-worker who went
into a small business after he retired, roasting green beans &
selling his coffee.. You can get smaller coffee roasters... I
thought about it, but I stopped drinking coffee for the most part,
as part of my new diet. Now mostly water.<br>
with lemon.<br>
coffee as a treat on the weekends.<br>

<p dir="ltr">A friend is from Ethiopia. At dinner after a visit
back home, he produced a large bag of green coffee beans,
roasted them in a skillet (and set off the smoke alarm - he now
does this part outside), ground the now brown/black shiny beans,
poured boiling water over them and poured through a strainer
into coffee cups after about 5 minutes of swirling to pot. <br>
Best<br>
Coffee<br>
EVER!</p>
<p dir="ltr">I almost cried it was so good. I didn't sleep a wink
that night either. It was pretty much a cup of double strength
expresso. </p>

We true addicts drink it for the reason God intended so the
only real requirement is caffeine and plenty of it.<br>
