I can't drink regular starbucks coffee without doing it. They over roast the shit out of those beans and it's always so bitter. Even their medium roasts are a bit much for me.
You only need a pinch, like 4-5 grains to do the job.

I don't know wtf Starbucks does, because I have a bag of this roast, which is just comically dark, literally jet black, and it's super tasty (in espresso, at least. probably only in espresso).

Damn, that's a pretty solid price. I might order a 2lber and check it out soon
I've got a lever espresso machine and a temperature-controlled kettle set at 88 C to brew this, and I really wouldn't suggest putting it in a drip machine. They aren't kidding when they say "dark," and it would be undrinkable brewed at 100 C. French press, pour-over, or aeropress would work, but I haven't tried. Its kind of overpowering in a latte, even.
Makes a tasty shot, though. (Said by someone who likes peated whisky.)
Nice, good looking out. I use both a French press or pour over. Usually French press. It can't be worse than this shit I'm drinking, and I'll likely have to use less per cup anyways.
