I was picking up tools at my local Canadian Tire store on the weekend (18V cordless drill, palm sander,..oil and filter etc) and noticed they had a digital Black and Decker 12 cup coffee makers for $15,...so I bought one.

My ex made the coffee and it was horrible so I drank instant. So I bought some Maxwell House and it's,...okay, but not great.

What are good ground coffee's for those who make it?

I'd have advised you against the B&D coffee maker. I bought one last year and it lasted 2 months.

Maxwell House does suck unless you buy the dark roast and put huge heaping scoops in.

None.

There's a lot of good coffee to be had. Maxwell House is not one of them. If you're after supermarket coffee, try Eight O'Clock. But the best is to find a local brand to support.

For $15 I am not expecting much

. Handsome bugger ain't it LOL

And yeah it sucks,..but I drank Nescafe instant Hazelnut or French Vanilla, plop of milk and a Splenda.

Was pretty good. The Maxwell House won't last very long,..I can make it stronger

This is your answer.

Yeah, but at times you can get a Mr. Coffee on sale just like it for $19 and it will probably last 5 years. So when my $15 B&D croaked after 2 months I was pretty pissed. Heck, the $8 Walmart special lasted a few years, lol!
