View topic - Best Supermarket Coffee Brand?? - Coffee Forum (#)
„As far as pre-ground goes Maxwell House is by far the best. As far as whole bean all I have access too is Millstone. Which if bought whole bean and then ground just before brewing is slightly better than pre-ground coffee. All in all the only way to get good coffee in the cup is to buy freshly roasted coffee and consume it before it can go stale.“

Brewing the Perfect Cup of Java
„Many of us have purchased the supermarket brands of pre-ground or whole bean coffees. The problem with these coffees is you can never be too sure how long the beans sit in those chutes and, as you know, exposure to air is an enemy of freshly roasted coffee beans. I recommend your specialty coffee purveyor, not to discredit your friendly grocer, but because specialty coffee retailers are solely in the business to sell coffee beans and therefore you can be more confident their beans are fresher because they move much more rapidly than supermarket beans.“

Coffee: Old Familiar Becomes New Favorite
„In coffee, the caffeine content depends both on the type of bean and on the roasting and brewing process. Beans harvested from the "robusta" species are typically found in common name brands like Folgers and Maxwell House. As the name implies, this plant is robust; it will grow in marginal or unpredictable conditions, and this means lower production costs. Beans from the arabica plant require more pampering but produce a more full-bodied flavor.“

„Even as it becomes stale the dark roast bite will remain stable in the bean. They can choose any varietal coffee and brew it through a wide range of temperatures and brewing times and come out with that signature burnt taste that the customer expects. More subtle roasts, featuring a high content of caramelized sugars, are notoriously finicky in their preparation demands. Equipment must be clean, barista skills must be at a very high level, grinder burrs sharp...and on and on to get a consistent flavor.“
