I think I may call it Wasatch Custom Coffee Grinding. How's that for a name?
I'm still the guy that keeps the coffee bar running in our building. I've been able to buy good tasting coffee from Costco in individual bags that just needed to be torn open and dumped into a filter for several months. I had to drive past 2 Costcos to get to the 1 that carried the coffee, but I could get it- until 2 weeks ago.
I could get Folgers in premeasured packages, but its Folgers- it tastes like mud and its no financial bargain. All the coffee vendors in the area wanted more than twice the price I was paying for fewer bags of coffee.
So I bought a grinder and 2 bags of beans from Costco this weekend and 500 ziplock bags. I turned 6 pounds of coffee beans into 60, one & a half ounce bags of ground coffee. The coffee bar is paying me to provide coffee and I'm billing the group enough to pay for my grinder over the next few bags of beans. I'm certainly not going to get rich off this endeavor but if I could find a commercial sized grinder for cheap, I might try branching out beyond my building at work.
As if I didn't have enough things to do already...
