Personal Notes:
The flavor of the beans is a matter of personal preference. We like ours spicy and have been known to add chipotle peppers in adobo sauce.
I love to use a Windsor brand Roasted garlic and sea salt grinder as it has red peppers in it also.
I have also tried a sea salt and chipotle or habanero mixture.
