Caribou Coffee is a mostly Minnesota chain, altho9ugh there are some in other states. They have a dark roast blend called Mahogany, and it is dreamy! I like it with heavy cream, and even though I'm trying to get away from sweetener, I use splenda with it too. Mmmmm, I love my coffee.

I don't drink coffee, but I tend to bring it back for folks when I travel instead of souvenirs. No trip to Chicago is complete unless I stop to pick up some from the vast selection they offer at the Coffee and Tea Exchange on Broadway Street. In Wisconsin there are several. Colectivo Coffee Roasters on Milwaukee's east side is another favorite. They roast their coffees at the Prospect location, or at least did my last visit. In the norther part of the state I always stop in and pick up some Door Country coffees. I'm sure I'm forgetting a few others from my travels but those are the main ones that jump out at the moment!

I had a major scare in my life today. I woke up extra early, 4 AM, to get started on my coffee roasting for holiday gifts. Micro roasting is very time-consuming. But so worth it! I was 6 pounds into my plan of 15 pounds when all of a sudden my roaster stopped. WTH!😮
True, nothing last forever but this roaster only has about 200 roasting hours on it. Anyhow instant panic. I immediately started obsessing that I’d be drinking Folgers. 🤮Redundant, these thoughts were because I was panicking. I ground up some of the beans I just roasted, Costa Rican, which by the way is one of the best every day coffees there is. More on that later if you like .......Then I took the cup that I brewed and walked around the house looking out the windows collecting myself. Serious coffee drinkers will understand that. I hypothesized that the 20° temperature outside may have made The coffee roaster work harder than it liked, thus shutting itself down. Fire is always a concern when you roast coffee. To this end, that is correct. As I breathe A huge sigh of relief. I knocked out three more pounds and now I’m letting the roaster rest as the temperature outside continues to rise
