To be honest, I am usually pretty lazy when it comes to making coffee. But, like most moms, I drink it daily because kids are exhausting! I have been buying ground coffee because, well, I have a coffee bean grinder, but I just haven't had the time to take it out and use it. Boy, what have I been missing! I tried The Coffee Grl’s Mademoiselle French Roast Coffee. It is a Whole Bean Coffee, so I had to grind the beans myself. It was totally worth the extra few minutes. I was im

The Moccamaster by Technivorm Master Making Coffee While the cost of the Technivorm Moccamaster may be a little steep (retails around $320 at Williams Sonoma), it really does brew a great cup of coffee. At first, out of the box I thought it would be complicated. It is on the larger side in terms of taking up counter space, but it is quite simple to use.
