I've been searching different places on the internet to get advice on coffee. a little quick background, once as a teen I tasted my moms cup of plain folgers that she drinks black. So gross that I've never tried coffee again. That was 20+ years ago. I don't like that bitter taste. I like more sweet. I do at times get a white choc mocha at starbucks or french van. capp at tim hortons (when I lived up north which is much sweeter than the mocha). I found that I do like the less sweet, more bitter white choc. mocha over the time hortons capp. that is really sweat. I would like to get to drinking coffee at home and not getting complicated. Just coffee. I don't have the means to invest a ton of money to go buy a grinder and expensive coffee maker. I have a keurig at this time. It gets used when family visit. I need the morning caffeine and drink soda to get that now.

I hate the bitter taste of most coffee and I realize that there will be some in all coffee but have read some tips about brewing temp/time, water quality, machine, fresh grinding and time since roasted. I just don't know where to start and look for some coffee. I would rather be able to get some in store as opposed to online so I can get a small quantity. I haven't looked here in florida but I remember up north in Wegman's grocery stores they had grinders in the coffee isle. I loved smelling that row. I always walked down that row just to get a whiff.

I love chocolate, nuts, not so much fruity type coffee.
I would love some advice on coffee to try. I imagine I will add sugar and cream but that could change if I get something that has great flavor and not just a cup of bitter flavored dark water.

I wouldn't be super opposed to getting a grinder and grinding my own but I don't want to overwhelm my self at first so finding a store that has a in store grinder would be awesome.

I live in SW florida on the coast so anyone with knowledge of that area and stores would also be helpful.
Thanks so much

Try to find some fresh roasted Brazil for nutty and Guatemala for chocolate flavors.

You should read through the thread that I started...
