Ok Moto buds,
its that time of year to start buying Christmas gifts for my family and my step father is a big coffee drinker (all he pretty much drinks). Any of you guys have any recommendations on what type/kind is the best for someone who loves his coffee? I was looking at maybe the black rifle coffee company seeing he was in the navy and think he would like the Branding? I'm not a big drinker of the stuff so please any info will be appreciated.

When we make coffee we use either a french press or we will use our Espresso machine, which we absolutely love.
If he doesn’t. Get him a new French press. I use whole beans from speeder and earls in Vermont. (I Buy in bulk bags) I grind the beans right before I brew.
So if he’s got a fancy machine that already grinds the beans. You could buy him a to go set up. Manual coffee grinder and a durable French press for travel or power outages. (And Not a cheap ass French press)

Get him a case of this
Or he will be like too fandy for me. Thanks for the thought tho!
i hate to make it, but love to drink it. i usually buy Folgers, but this week i bought Kroger brand and love it. i put cream in it and could drink 10 cups per morning. all in all i'm $40 in my machine and 12.00 per month in coffee. i would laugh if someone bought me a fancy machine/french press. i'm a simple man. i bought a Keurig and made 3 cups with it and gave it away. fuckin' hated the taste.
i've thought about brewing my own beer, but it sounds like it takes a long time and i just like getting blasted
Keurigs suck. The coffee is like drinking brown water. It’s terrible.
And it wouldn't be a Canadian suggestion if I didn't mention Tim Horton's.
Me and my wife drink one or two cups a day. So we like a quality brew without a lot of waste and the french press is perfect for that. Since we don't drink a lot of coffee the Espresso machine is perfect when we want something high-end. Wife makes a great espresso with frothed milk on the top. I'm not a coffee snob by any means but it tastes great!
maybe buy him a badass YETI coffee mug (mine is the shit, stays hot for an insanely long time), a bag of coffee, and a box of cigars. sometimes i'll puff a cigar while sipping my coffee on my deck. makes me feel like a fuckin' cowboy.
I’ve actually become pretty good about routine making.
Wake up. 1/4 cup beans. Grind. 2 12 oz cups in the tea kettle. Go back to my morning routine. When kettle whistles. Pour into press. Stir. Walk away and if I want strong coffee let it steep for 10 minutes. If I don’t want strong. Let it steep for 3-4. Pour on my way out the door. Multi-task. But it’s worth it. Whole new experience on the coffee.
I think doing this has ruined me. Because I can’t drink drip at work. It’s too weak. I just need one hard hitter instead of 5 cups of weak sauce.

I know Iwreckalot bought some as well, maybe he will chime in and see which one he prefers. He sampled some of mine and I think I got his redneck ass hooked on it.
I ran out here at work so I'm drinking Tim Hortons right now, shoutout to Maverick. You betcha! eh'
OR get the ones that the ocelots eat and shit out for enhanced flavour. You know, Step Dad and all.
BTW, Keurigs belong in the dump, too much hassle for one cup of coffee. When I make coffee, I want the pot to last me a couple of hours, not minutes.
Fresh ground or nothing !!
