Is there a bulk/inexpensive coffee that actually tastes good? (slrpnk.net)

There's like 15 different communities for coffee! Nice!

Like many of us, I survive largely on the break room coffee pot. Our grounds are running low again and the hospital doesn't stock it, so it's on the employees.

Our taste in coffee is driven mostly by cost, so we go through a lot of Costco-sized buckets of Folgers, but Folgers famously tastes like dirt. Still, it's cheap and it's coffee, so that's usually the winner.

I'm not a connoisseur by any means, but... any good options that taste less like dirt while still being cheap / available in large quantities?

Cheapest I’ve found in the us is the Dunkin medium roast, but as others have said grinding it with a burr grinder (not a blade grinder) is a huge difference. You can buy a bag of beans and have them ground at some supermarkets though. True bulk for a community break room is gonna be hard. Best of luck.
