I’m not some fancy pants $1000 dollar coffee machine guy :) Just someone who enjoys a break from Folgers! So every once in a while, I’ll get a gift cirtificate for Starbucks….and I smartly grab a bag of beans….I’m partial to Sumatra.

Life has been a tough for my wife and I, along with our 3 boys. We’ve lived without much. In fact, when the only coffee you have comes from a food pantry…..well, let’s say it might be black, but it certainly has a unique taste :)

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve come to deeply appreciate and be thankful for every bite of food we have along with any coffee……it’s just that I really appreciate a gourment coffee bean!

I found ebay a great place to get coffee beans, check out some of the offers below. You might find some cheap prices for gourment coffee beans….maybe even some Sumatra!

4 Bags of Coffee with FREE ShippingWhether you’ve considered making your own roasted coffee beans or you simply want to be able to buy truly fresh beans, some simple facts about coffee can help you choose the best beans and end up with the best coffee you’ve ever had.

Coffee beans start out green.  These raw beans are then roasted and ground into the coffee that most of us are familiar with.  In fact, most everyone who has ever drunk coffee has experienced both an excellent and a horrible cup of coffee.  Considering that you can do everything from growing your own coffee to purchasing instant coffee that only requires hot water, it’s no wonder that the quality of coffee can vary from one extreme to another.

And price really has no bearing on quality.  You can pay a lot of money for brand name instant coffee that tastes worse than the cheaper ground coffee that sits next to it on the shelf. Expensive Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee might cost more than the store-brand, but if the Jamaican coffee is old and stale, the cheaper coffee will taste better.  The problem with coffee you buy in a store is that you never really know how old the roasted coffee beans were when the coffee was ground, and how long ago the beans were ground—both factors that make or break the quality and flavor of coffee.

Roasted coffee beans are considered fresh for about a month, so the coffee you buy in a store should have been ground from those beans during that time. And the moment bean are ground, the coffee is fresh, but should be used immediately.  Vacuum packing does retain much of the freshness, but coffee lovers know that freshly ground from bean to brew makes a better cup of coffee than freshly ground and instantly packaged, to sit on shelf for who knows how long.

If you’re purchasing whole roasted coffee beans, then the way they’re packaged will tell you something about their age.  If there’s no way for CO2 to escape the package, then the beans had to sit for several days before they were packaged.  If the packaging does allow for this release, then they were probably packaged immediately and will be fresher, providing you’re able to purchase them right away.


Boca Java Signature SamplerWhile they’re considered fresh for 30 days, true coffee fans will tell you that 3 days is the window for the best tasting coffee.  After 3 days, the fresh roasted coffee beans will start to lose their aromatic oils. So for the best coffee possible, you can buy green coffee beans and roast them yourself at home.

The whole process of roasting your own beans takes less than a half an hour.  Home roasting equipment lets you roast only small batches—batches than can be easily used within 3 days—so you’re always guaranteed a fresh cup of coffee. If you choose to purchase roasted coffee beans, choose a shop that revolves around coffee so you know you’ll get quality every time.

Now, when your feet first touch the floor in the morning and you are groggily making your way to the coffee pot, you probably aren’t thinking about where coffee came from or who discovered the magic stuff. But the origins of coffee are really rather interesting, and after you have finished that first cup, you might like to know how it happened that you have a cup of coffee to get your day started off right. There are several versions of how coffee was discovered. And there is a new coffee called Boca Java that features gourment coffee with roasted to order beans.

One story is that a sheep herder from Caffa Ethopia named Kaldi noticed that when his sheep ate red “cherries” from a certain plant, they became very active. The sheep would have been bouncing off the walls, had there been walls. The sheep herder decided to try the “cherries” himself and soon he was as hyper as his herd of sheep. A monk came along and scolded Kaldi for “partaking of the devil’s fruit,” but then the monks discovered that the red “cherries” helped them to stay awake while they were saying prayers. If only these poor fellows new about Boca Java with their gourment coffee’s and maybe even order some custom roasted beans, of course we drink it for the great taste….but lets not forget the jolt we get from the cafeine This isn’t the only story about the origin of coffee, though. There is another story about an Arabian, Omar, who was banished to the desert along with his followers to “die from starvation.” There was nothing to eat in the
Boca Java Signature Samplerdesert, and Omar and his followers were sure to die. Then, in an act of desperation, Omar ordered his followers to boil the fruit from an unknown plant and eat it. The fruit and the broth saved their lives and it was considered a miracle from God. The residents of the nearest town, Mocha, were awed by the miracle, and the plant and the beverage were named Mocha to honor the event. Consider either of two coffee stories. Originally the coffee plant grew in Ethiopia (Ethopia), but once it was transplanted to Arabia, it was claimed by them. We get to take advantage of these early conniseurs of coffee, today we have companies like Boca Java that will deliver custom roasted gourment beans directly to our front doorstep….how far we’ve come :) Go ahead and give Boca Java a try…they offer a 100% guarantee! More than 30 unique blends and flavors you won’t find anywhere else.
