    Default Roasters: Where do you buy your beans?

    I have ordered from sweet marias in the past.

    Also, I am guessing I am better off buying 10+ pounds of one coffee to get the best "Bang for the buck" ?

    Thanks.

    In Minnesota, I can get green coffee beans at Dunn Brothers coffee and a few co-ops in the area

    Sweet Maria's is probably the best overall place I've found. They sell everything and the site is a virtual coffee roasting encyclopedia. By the way green beans are no cheaper in bulk and often times there are limits on how much you can buy on certain varieties. Most go for about $5-$6 per pound.

    Another for Sweet Maria's. I am just waiting for it to warm up a bit (I roast in the garage) to place my yearly order.
