Hello friendslist,

I need your help! I accidentally bought a bag of coffee beans instead of ground coffee (these things can happen whilst wondering around in an undercaffeinated daze), and now I wonder if grinding my own beans (that sounds filthy somehow. Um. Maybe I'm just a pervert.) would actually be a good idea. Do any of you practice this habit? Would you recommend it? How does it contribute to your coffee experience? What brands of coffee grinders would you suggest? Any advice would be much appreciated.

Betcha can't eat just one :D (They are scarily addictive)

Oh, and following on harriet_vane's suggestion, if Starbucks won't do it, what about taking it back to where you bought it and asking them?

Some of the supermarkets in Aus. have a commercial-grindy-thingy in the coffee aisle where shoppers can grind their beans (you're right - it does sound filthy) in the store and take them home.
