Default Need Coffee Advice

This weekend a girl that I have been dating for a month is staying here from Friday night until Sunday night.

I have never tasted coffee simply because the smell is just terrible. She however loves the stuff so I want to go get a coffee maker and some coffee. I simply have no clue and would probably just go buy one of the drip coffeemakers that I have always seen.

Please let me know if there is a better alternative to those. I also need to know what kind of coffee to get. I don't really want to spend a ton of money on this though so please don't recommend some huge $100 machine.

Thanks,

NZ

I don't see how a Mr. Coffee drip machine and some pre-grinded grounds is bad (esp. if you want to save money on the first shot). It shouldn't cost you too much. Just go to Costco or something.

edit: don't forget the filters. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Great machine, great features, great price..

Cuisinart


Adjustable keep warm temperature control to keep your brewed pot warm.

Very nice looking too, sort of metal retro....
Can't go wrong....

I wouldn't bother getting fancy, just buy a cheapo drip machine. Don't buy any of the gross canned beans like folgers or whatever, grind the beans at the store yourself.

get a french press. very easy to make coffee with these and she might be impressed. plus it's most definitely cheaper than a drip coffee machine.

mmmmmm......coffee
