Yes...you are...since you're buying from Starbucks.

As a preparation method, though, no.

Haha wrong about me purchasing it, gf gets a weekly box of tea/bag of coffee free from there.

Glad I'm using the good prep. method though. Is there anything other than french press and standard drip for regular coffee?

Any suggestions as to where I should be buying coffee that is better than starbucks coffee. I like the 'bold' category most from starbucks.

FWIW, I think most people get bored with a french press fairly quickly and revert to the convenience of a drip. I did.

Compared to the 30 seconds it takes to get a drip machine with a timer ready each night and wake up to already brewed coffee it is. Plus you have to clean the filter. And you there can be grains and/or cloudy coffee. Everyone I've known that used a press or vacuum thing in the past uses a drip now. That said, you can make some awesome coffee with em.

French press is really good for your triceps. If you do this workout w/ skull crushers and pull downs, you will have guns imo.

Also, anything mocha will do fine.

Get a percolator, Starbucks espresso roast, make it strong, and drink it black...

Six cups (big) of water, eight coffee. That's the ratio.
