You know what Peaberries are right?
I'm on Rand roast #1111 if I numbered them
I think that is the right picture.

The Baratza Forte AP... ceramic flats that do extremely well for finer range grinding.
Moose Drool coffee.
Dark Magic was one of our regulars for a while. We just finished up Black Granite. It wasn't bad.
First time Smoother than I expected but not as dark as expected but better than other Green Mountain
I'm back to Major Peet's for kcups at the moment. For me, it is extremely consistent. I have so much coffee to go through, I don't know where to start. Trying to go my expiration dates. Peet's always have shortest time. I think they give ~6 months or less whereas others can be a few years.
If you don't mind "not great" but really good for the money when you get a deal, we liked the Solimo dark roast. When I say deal, I'm talking like 21 cents a cup. Wife didn't dig the solimo french roast or either the dark and french roast Happy Belly so I don't get them anymore. Sometimes I want really good coffee and others I want cost effective coffee!
And if you are willing to wait for a deal and like espresso tasting coffee, Starbucks Italian roast is really good.
It’s really hard to beat Peet’s on the commercial side in 2024.
Easily a leader in value for Nespresso #8,9,10 especially when on sale

Darn right. Long as I can get major Dickason blend like I did at Costco. Enjoying some Dickason now with the girlfriend. And watching Spenser for Hire
Made Eight O'Clock whole bean coffee in a French press. I carefully ground it using a burr grinder. The coffee was fresh, but not good.
I've had the same coffee years ago and it was very good, not this batch.

Which variety?
The Original.
I’m with you. I have tried to like it and just can’t.
it just sucks.
On the other hand, their 100% Colombian is pretty good. It has been my daily driver for years, but I’m a bit tired of it by now, and I’m looking into some other coffees to determine what my new “workday” coffee is going to be.
My mom bought me 2 lbs of Peet’s Organic Alameda blend medium roast for Christmas, and I really like it.
At around $.81/oz, it’s about double the cost of the Eight O Clock, but not nearly as much as the specialty coffee I buy, which ranges in price from $1.50-2.00/oz or more.

Single lungo draw with lemon zest and cream. More delicious than expected
Two pods, ristretto draw each. Organic Cacao powder, dry milk powder, inulin, date sugar, boiling water, and cream. Cinnamon on top. Heaven and not even that sweet.

I like that blend from Peet's. I'd buy packages of 50 from eBay at a very good price.
Your lemon zest technique is worth trying. I vaguely remember it from many years ago.
I vaguely remember the lemon from a cooking show, I think. I was dubious at first. I think the cream made it nice, but try without (first)
Does the pumpkin pie flavor come through? Just curious.
