What is the best brand of espresso beans to buy and where do you find them?

Question

I just got a new espresso machine and I can't find espresso beans at my local grocery stores. What do you think?

Answer 1

California Coffee Roasters has a website, and you can order them on-line.  They are ROASTED the day that they're sent, and you have a choice of about 4 grinds, or whole bean.  They fully explain each of their coffees, and all of their other blends are available in 4-5 different strength roasts & grinds.  It's about $7.95/lb (cheaper than the grocery) and you get a free pound when you order $50 worth......  I've used them almost 10 years:)

Answer 2

Most Starbucks carry espresso beans and they are very good.  If you have a Costco in your area, they also carry the Starbucks espresso beans sometimes.  I can also get them at Krogers stores and Wal Mart.  Good luck!
