How expensive are good beans? I buy my coffee at The Coffee Mill in Baltimore. As a reference, they sell a pound of Kenya AA for $5.50. In fact most of their beans are $5.50/lb, except for Kona, Ethiopian Harrar, and a few others. This is the least expensive price I have found in the Baltimore area. The beans are always very good. I have seen prices for the same coffee elsewhere between $6.00 and $9.00 per pound. What are prices like in DC? Do places like Price or Pace sell bulk quantity, wholesale-like priced coffee in the bean? Skip Collins -- Skip Collins
