I’m planning on buying coffee for several friends as part of a Christmas gift but I’m not sure if they have coffee grinders. The company I’m ordering from has a K cup option and the option to buy ground coffee. Any thoughts on which option would be best?

How into coffee are they? I’m a bit of a coffee snob and I don’t use a Keurig. You can just buy ground coffee. Check out George Howell coffee roasters out of Boston.

Ground is always safe since they can do a pour over or press post. But if you know they have a grinder, whole bean is better quality. Not a fan of K-cups but for those friends who have them, I’ll get something fun, like a Kona or premium brand. Love to support local roasters when possible!!

There are a lot of stores that would grind your coffee for you for free. I’d always go with beans.
