Hi All,
Am kinda tired of paying $16+ from my local roasters (I admit, it's worth it - but I wanna try something new).
Anyone know about any good to very good roasted beans that can be bought on-line that are good for espresso and latte drinks?
eBay has a TON of roasted whole bean coffee for sale, but there are so many choices that it makes my head spin! Anyone on here roast at home and sell the fruits of their labors to fellow CoffeeGeekers?
The list looks like it's old at first glance, but it is updated regularly and current (if you read all the posts in the thread, you'll see this to be true).

That's a great list, but I guess what I was looking for is a small roaster that sells their roasted beans for cheap. There's tons that fit this description on eBay, but it would be a shot in the dark to pick one that might be good.
Anyone buy roasted beans for < $10 per pound from an on-line source that they like?
My expectations are set accordingly, but I wanna give it a shot…
