...AND WHY THE FUCK ISN'T IT ALWAYS LIKE THIS!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!???? If I go to the Ralph's up the street to buy whole beans from Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, they've likely been sitting on the shelf for three months. If I go next door to the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, they've likely been sitting on the shelf for six. "Fresh roasted" coffee in LA is anything less than a month old. But oh fuck how people love their kuerigs around here...The real benefit for a high end coffee shop isn't so much the pour over and filter, but the fact that you just ground the beans up a second before.
