I literally let out a yelp at Target yesterday when I happened across Archer Farms coffee beans in Tanzanian Peaberry. I’ve been on a quest for peaberry coffee since the local coffee bean shop stopped carrying it because they would have had to charge $18 a pound (!!! up from what I considered pricey at $11) To my joy, I found it at Target for $6.78 a pound! That’s less that what I pay for a bag of Dunkin Donut beans.

I scooped up two bags to take home to try out. After running around for three hours with the kids, I decided I earned a cup of my favorite variety of coffee. In my eagerness to brew, I forgot to empty the filter and made a complete mess with grounds and brown water all over the place. I took everything apart, cleaned, and started over. I would not be deterred. It’s pretty good. Maybe not quite as amazing as from the gourmet shop, but it’s a smooth, no acid coffee. Coupled with my grind and brew coffeemaker, I’m pretty happy and feeling savvy.
