I know a guy who roasts the beans himself, in his home oven.

A dash? How big of a dash? Half teaspoon in an 8 cup brew? Add it in the grounds before brewing?

Come to think of it, I have a big old electric grinder stored away somewhere. Plus, there is a huge roasting company not far from here that makes the whole place smell good when it is roasting coffee. I think I'll dig that old thing out and go by that roasting company and get some beans. Maybe I should roast my coffee as Ron said, in my oven. Maybe I should buy my own green beans, roast and grind them myself.
Hey, I think I could get into this coffee thing after all.

Thats the spirit!
You may be describing a "burr" coffe grinder. These are required for uniformity in fine espresso machine grinds. However, a small $12.00 blender style will work perfect for most standard coffee makers. Roasting your own beans requires alot of trail and error - but people have tweaked roasters and popcorn poppers of all kinds to do just that. I figure getting day old beans locally is better - plus I simply do not have the hours required to test roast.
I buy the finest dark roasted Columbian beans for little more than the green bean price. If someone wants, I will hook you up to Omega Coffee - my local roaster. Kenny is a fine Christian man and he will send out a few pounds at reasonable rates.

Thank you for you suggestions here.
I'm going to dig out my old grinder and experiment myself. If my results are not satisfactory, I would like to get hooked up with "Kenny." Man, I love good coffee. 
I'm like Lady Chocolate, I am particular too.

OK. Kenny is a great bean source - he roasts daily. As far as grinding - if the big one you have doesn't do the trick check out this http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=6528830
