Working from home and the hectic work has gotten me into the quest for the best drip coffee at home but with moderate effort (have aeropress, french press, pour over etc, espresso machine, but if it takes me 10 minutes to make a coffee, it eventually just goes in storage, gotta be make it and drink 5 cups of it, and no to pod systems)
Best coffee grounds
My favourite grounds is likely from 49th Parallel from Vancouver (all of them are winners). Kawa in the beltline serves it if you want to try it. Harder to find, get it shipped.

Deville (specifically this linked beans) is seriously my go to coffee whenever I have the chance. I usually buy a new bag when I get a coffee in store (your drink is free with the purchase of a bag).

I also really like Analog's Godfather and a few others, I think we have some pretty great roasters. I will try some like Devil's Head I haven't tried before.
For the holy grail of 'cheap' coffee grounds, after hunting and some spectacular failures (never ever buy anything coffee related from Homesense), I find Save on Foods espresso beans the best. The big bags in the coffee section specifically (not the grab and go ones though they are ok)

I make 2 pots a day of this stuff.
I got this moderately priced burr grinder and its quite good, much less then a similar brand name. You do have to put a drop of water here and there to avoid static issues.
