At the suggestion of UncleBeanz, I tried roasting 1/2 and 1/2 med and dark roast of the same coffee and mixing. Results were very good. SM's Moka Kadir at 1/2 FC-1/2 Vienna is chocolatey, with fruit, ultra smooth, dark roast flavors. UB's Negrita 1/2 city+, 1/2 FC+ is nutty, chocolatey, not as bold, excellent. 2 different coffees to start my Saturday, it's gonna be a good day

I was recently at a casino in NY and had the best cup of coffee ever in one of the casino restaurant. When I asked the waitress what brand it was, she said people ask her that all the time, however she was unsure how to pronounce it. She failed at explaining the container to me as well. She said it comes in a bag that attaches to the machine thingy? I had her go write the name of it down, I will try to supply that name when/if I can find it.
I am at work now and the napkin with the name should be somewhere at home.

Another note I have a friend that order his beens green. he roasts them with a bar-b-que grill roaster attachment ($500) and packages them for a charity.
If he was interested in more business I would include more info, needless to say the coffee is great. If any of you have ever thought about roasting your own beans, do it! He sells it to me at $10/pound.

At home I have a Kuerig brewer and try many different brands and flavors of coffee.
