Purchased a 2lb. Bag whole bean, made my first pot using Moccamaster coffee grinder set at 4 and a half ground 82.8 grams a little more than I normally grind the taste was great I really enjoyed it.
I love the coffee. It is smooth and not too bold. The founders blend is one that I would give away for Christmas. I also love the automated reorder system. I will always buy this coffee.
