I'm intrigued with the idea of roasting my own coffee from green coffee beans with a home made device similar to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIO54NhGoTE.
Don't know if I'll ever do it, but I'm intrigued with the idea. One would have to find a good source that would sell you green coffee beans at a reasonable price to be worthwhile.
Normally I buy store bought roasted coffee beans and freshly grind one pot at a time. A 36oz bag of beans from Kroger runs $17-19 USD, and lasts a couple of weeks.
...in addition to a large cup of Tim Hortons several times a week...
Black coffee during the first part of the day...then hot orange/black pekoe tea with sugar later in the afternoon...usually.
