Bean to cup

[MaryPoppins]

I bet 999 people in a 1000 can't tell the difference between coffee made by a fancy expensive machine, and that made from a few beans ground up and chucked in a £10 cafetiere from Sainsbury's.

I don't like to disagree with you Nickeroo, but on this occasion I do! I'm no coffee purist, but I do struggle to find a decent cup.

Sorry to hijack but any recommendations for a decent compact grinder?

Blue Mountain is a great coffee – just be careful you are getting the actual thing, worldwide more coffee is sold a Jamaican Blue Mountain than is actually produced. It is best done in a cafetiere as the flavour is not suited to the high heat of machines

Coffee fraud (who would have thought) - I hadn't heard of it until last year when my mum brought me some back from Jamaica. When that ran out i bought some from whittard (very expensive) but have just got a lb of it from a friend returning from Jamaica. Unfortuantely it doesn't keep for long.
