Best Coffee Setup for the Money

When asking, "What's the best coffee setup for the money?" we need to consider a few key factors. 

• High-Quality Whole Bean Coffee- St.Pete Coffee can get you fresh coffee for a great coffee experience and a great price

• A Proper Brewing Machine - Yes, you can brew coffee on any type of machine... I have seen some strange things.  However, when brewing coffee you need a machine that can brew coffee in a tight temperature range of 197-202 degrees Fahrenheit.  We choose a brewer based on price and quality.

• Great Water - Since Coffee is mostly water great water will make the coffee taste better. You want a water that is filtered. If you live a great area with great water you could use it. (you know who you are)

• A Coffee Grinder - Fresh evenly ground coffee smells amazing and it makes the coffee that much fresher. I know what you are saying, could I use a spice grinder. You could, however, if you aren't grinding the powder to a powder, you want a grinder that EVENLY grinds the coffee.

So, here is our recommendation:

1. Great Coffee- Start by purchasing whole bean coffee, which means investing in a good grinder. But even the best coffee beans won’t shine if your brewing machine isn’t up to par. -www.stpetecoffee.com

2. Baratza Encore– This is a great conical burr grinder

3. Bonavita BV1500TS Coffee Machine 

4. Great Water- This Brita filter would od the trick, (I have a whole house filter system so I can get filtered water from the tap)
