I'd like to try something really different.

Yeh I'm aware there's something wrong with me and I'm OK with it.

I'm okay with it, too. I wouldn't have it any other way.

Don't know where you are in PA.
You should try coffees offered by:

Counter Culture
Intelligensia
Orens Daily Roast

All of these folks roast their own.
We roast on demand.

Get their Black Cat Expresso

Also, Stumptown Hairbender is great stuff.

If you're not real tuned into brewing technique, something different might be achieved by more focus on methodology.

If your methods are already bulletproof, then I think the families of Ethiopian and Yemani coffees can be very different - profound, even, if you're not already familiar with them.

I've just got a little grinder and my big Bunn coffee maker. I'm not going to be adding a french press or any other wild stuff any time soon, although a better grinder probably wouldn't hurt.
I read about Ethiopian coffee and I agree. I thought I might like it.
I haven't heard of Yemani but I'll look into it.
Thank You, and Thanks to everyone!!!

Ethiopian Harrar, Yirgecheffe and Yemani Mocha, if good quality and freshly brewed, are in a class by themselves. I wouldn't expect much from anything in a bag at the grocery store though.

Avoid the move to anything with Jamaican Blue Mountaqin written on the bag if you really want something different, too.
