Best Organic Coffee Beans

I made it my personal mission to try every brand of organic whole coffee bean at Amazon.com. I'm almost through them all. It's been fun, I just don't sleep much anymore. Seriously, I'm a long time coffee lover who believes you haven't had coffee until you've ground your own beans. Here are just a few of the reasons to try organic and fair trade coffee beans:

Which Do You Prefer, Oily Beans or Dry Beans?

Guy E Wood: I much prefer oily beans because they produce a more robust and interesting brew. I like my coffee to have substance and texture, and find water-like coffee to be boring.

Sweetbunny LM: I think oily definitely has a better taste.

jessiesharee: I prefer Beantrees Organic coffees. They are perfectly roasted to order in small copper kettles & they only purchase the top 1-2% highest quality beans from organic farmers around the equator. I <3 Love <3 this coffee! Their Peruvian is AMAZING!!! www.beantrees.com

ChrisShaefer: This is an excellent lens, thank you for the hard work and effort you put into this. I always love an informative publication that has some substance. I have a few coffee articles of my own. Please stop by and share a little love. Thanks again, 2 thumbs up and a LIKE for you! Shaefercd

shandigp: Some coffee bean are supposed to be oily, some not, so i say "it depends." The darker the roast the oilier the bean will bee-unless it's decaf which has oils incidentally removed during the decaffeinating process.

hsschulte: I recently read this on a blog, "It is a common, misconception that shiny, oily coffee beans are an indicator of freshness." I have no idea if it is an indicator of freshness, or if it is a misconception, but I do know this: OILY COFFEE BEANS TASTE BETTER! YEAH!

markkeeler: Oily beans mean that you are losing all your flavor! The flavor is in the oil.

Interesting information about using coffee beans and storing it. It also talks about when to buy the beans roasted and when to buy it unroasted. Another comparison in this video is organic to conventionally grown coffee. If you drink organic coffee with a higher level of antioxidants (organic and whole bean) it can cut down on some health problems including diabetes and colon cancer.
