Hey guys,

Just wanted to ask your opinions. So the other day I went to Artisans roast and ordered a filtered coffee. Personally I found it a little light and a slight tinge of sour. So I went online and it seems that everyone is chasing this lighter more acidic sort of coffee (unless I am much mistaken). Is it weird that I think a darker more bitter roast which would not be as sour is better? Or am I missing out on some flavor or taste that I did not really pick up from the cup? Could it be that what I am missing is the flavors of the coffee oil which would not be there because of the filtering?

Also I am looking to get a manual grinder to make some coffee with a french press. Can anyone recommend any coffee beans that might be worth trying?
