bkk6060 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Not sure what coffee they use I would like to know. I have tried coffee all over this country. Kind of odd I guess the best coffee for the price is 7-11. I had one today on Beach road they seem to be running a discount 20b. Fresh grind drip no BS. Probably the best coffee/price in the country for fresh grind from my experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A box has about 40 pacs and last us about 4 months at 3500 baht a case. Wife had a coffee shop directly across from Surin Immigration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I buy the Bon Cafe 'Cafe Crema' beans which are 100% Arabica, medium roast, beans are from Thailand. Cost for a 250g bag is Bht 195, I get about 25 cups from a 250g bag, so that's approx Bht 8 per cup plus the electric, sugar and milk. I use a small hand grinder, and a simple drip filter, filter papers will set you back another Bht 1.7 per cup. So maybe 12 to 15 Baht per cup all in. .

hotchilli Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 I buy 100% Arabica coffee beans direct from the roasters up in Chiang Mai.. Grind myself and do a pour-over method of brewing at home... better than any packed rubbish you buy from convenience stores. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, the old saying, 'that and 50 cents will get you a cup of coffee' is still true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the best coffee/price in the country for fresh grind from my experience. Except doing it yourself at home? Ground fresh using a pour over method. 15g grind per 250ml of coffee = around 10baht per cup. Edited March 14, 2021 by hotchilli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I buy 1kg pack Arabica medium roast 650 baht direct from the Thai roaster up in Chiang Mai, I don't add sugar or milk as I prefer natural coffee taste. Ground fresh using a pour over method. 15g grind per 250ml of coffee = around 10baht per cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
