I used to have a prescription for Gevalia (whole bean), got too 'spensiv

As much as I hate to admit it, I often keep a pouch of Starbust Pike Roast instant packets in case my coffeepot is empty of the usual Folger's classic roast when I wake up. I will NOT pay the absurd prices for Starbust coffee at thier retail locations.

I'm boring. Folger's Classic Roast. Make a 10-cup pot everyday with three scoops (on the weak side), fill my mug and put the rest in a thermos. Drink it all before the day is done.
