I've been cold brewing my coffee. I dump a bunch of grounds in a big jar and pour water over them. After a couple of days I pour it through the funnel-filter I use for home brewing. Each day for the next few days I mix the 1/3 dark coffee with 2/3 water, pop it in the microwave for 3 minutes and enjoy.

Cold brew is much lower acid and less bitter than hot brewed, and much less "plastic" flavored than the Keurig at work.

I used to roast my beans in a skillet on my charcoal grill. It gave them a nice smoky flavor. I haven't done that in a while. (Too much effort.)
