A lot of the stores used to have a grinder in the coffee aisle. I haven't seen one in a long time.
I never used one of those. I have a grinder at home. It's nice to have when I accidentally purchase whole beans.

Right. Really getting tired of having a hard time finding what was always there before. Grrr

I had one but it drove the dog crazy so I had to listen to the loud grinder AND this crazy pooch losing his chit.

It's so frustrating. Another reason I hate to shop.

I keep hoping things will get better, but seems it's one thing after another. Store shelves here in Louisiana are still not stocked full after Covid. When I ask why, they say because they have no workers. I can understand that because we are having a hard time finding men for construction work. None want to work! Ones that show for a day or two, haven't a tool or vehicle. I could go on..but won't. Sorry. Back to coffee talk.

So, we've switched from Starbucks to Dunkin' Donuts to Peets. And there's a blue bag, Kona?
If its a dark roast, we try it. Found Dunkin' Midnight, gonna try that.

Ground whole beans this morning of Peets Major Dickason's Blend. Smelled wonderful grinding and dripping.

I don't taste a difference. Maybe it's all the cream I add?

Anyway, it didn't take any time to grind, and the cats didn't climb the walls with the sound of the grinder, so I'll finish up this bag but probably go back to ground.

I use the grinder to keep my knives razor sharp. It seems like it would be dangerous to try to pulverize coffee beans with that thing.
