Black. I make it with an aeropress and I grind the beans for each cup. Just recently started experimenting with specialty coffee but so far the lighter roasts with more citrus/fruit in the description seem to be the ones I like the best.

I visited a coffee farm in Costa Rica. They told us that 'dark roast' was for the substandard coffee.

Definitely true. The heavy roasted flavor that's common amongst all dark roasts definitely hides the lack of true complex flavors. A nice Colombian med/med-dark can still get you that darker/nuttier flavor, but way more complex.
Same. Found Aeropress to be the best balance of TTC (time to coffee!), consistency, flavour extraction and ease of cleaning. Also prefer freshly ground light roasts!
On the hunt for a good burr grinder that doesn’t break the bank.

Yeah unless you have a whole proper espresso setup for $1k+.... aeropress is really good. I have an amazing rich cup in like 3 mins.
