Everything that I have tried from Fire Dept Coffee, especially Light Roast, Donut Shop, and Skull-Crushing Espresso, have been awesome.Anyone tried any new coffee that’s been a winner?

I like moose drool beer, Ill have to give the Coffee a tryReally love Moose Drool whole Bean. The name may make your stomach turn and I had some family not even touch it but as the old saying goes....."judge a book by its cover and ......your loss".
Actually, I haven't ordered coffee in months, just been working through my green beans. Not a bad thing, there's some awesome stuff in there! However, my local place sent me an email coupon, since I hadn't been by for awhile, so I picked up this Kenya yesterday. It's good.Anyone tried any new coffee that’s been a winner?
Good news / bad news. Glad they replaced it, but too bad it failed.An update to my post. I have already received a replacement for my Redline and you cant ask for any better customer service and warranty then that, painless. That said I am a technivorm convert, it makes a great cup of coffee. I am a pour over guy but this might make me lazy!
Technivorm convert here, too. I have owned and used just about everything, from a regular Braun auto drip, to an old fashioned percolator, to a French press, to a moka pot, to a muy espensivo Jura superauto (great coffee; terrible reliability), to a Nespresso machine, to (yes) a K-cup brewer, to the Aeropress . . . and finally the Technivorm Moccamaster. For me, the Technivorm hits the sweet spot of taste, convenience, cost and reliability. It ended my search.Actually, I haven't ordered coffee in months, just been working through my green beans.

There are a LOT of new machines on the scene, but it's hard to beat a 'Vorm. They are really well made, but as I found out, if anything goes wrong, the ONLY thing you can do is send it in, to The Netherlands. I managed to fix the borosilicate glass tube on my own, but finding the correct sized metric tube was not terribly easy. Nobody to blame but myself, I tore it apart to clean it well and te tube rolled off the table...
They are essentially as close as you can get to an automated pour over IMO. I like to fill it up and "pause" it, and let the coffee steep (like a press) for a couple extra minutes. It's a bit more work, you have to babysit it so it doen't overflow, and the basket only holds about half what the pot do (so you have to do this twice in a single pot), but it makes a killer good cup!!! I think the extra work is worth the resulting cup.
I’ve never had a Kenya coffee. I’ve looked at them a few times but never pulled the triggerActually, I haven't ordered coffee in months, just been working through my green beans.

Corvus is awesome!!!

How’s it compare to Ethiopian?
Kenya has just about always been my favorite origin overall!!! Definitely need to try some if you haven't. Look for one from the Nyeri region if you can find it.
