Round 1

Had this for the first time last night and was blown away. So damn good

When people tell me they love coffee and then proceed to tell me how Starbucks is their favorite, I immediately know I can't take anything they say about coffee seriously. Reminds me of a conversation I had with my 13yo daughter this morning. She said the Ethiopian Sidama smelled awful while it...

ER17. Really really good.

I will add that you train the kitty litter, you get it to set at whatever rh you want

Between 65-69% which is perfect for my tastes

I use unscented silica gel kitty litter. Same concept as heartfelt beads, a fraction of the cost. Spray with distilled water when they dry out and they hold humidity like a champ.

@jammin, ran the Ethiopian Sidama through the aeropress this morning after only a short rest. Wasn't a pure cup because there was a little bit of Guat/Tanz blend left in my grinder I wasn't going to waste. What I ended up with was a cup that tasted like a chocolate covered blueberry. I'm hoping...

Ethiopian Sidama just pulled to cool. Haven't cleaned the chaff yet. The house smells amazing to me, pretty excited to cup this one

The first of these I had was back when they first released in the 44rg size and it was kinda harsh and needed time. This is 50rg and smoking much nicer. We sell them at the shop for $8.50 and I feel they smoke well over that price so grab some if you can find them

Last night with a good buddy

@jammin, I haven't been able to justify a decent espresso machine to my wife so I am stuck with wither the Aeropress or V60 prep. If you can provide feedback for those that would be awesome. I appreciate the roast profile. That roasted faster than I have been so I will be either decreasing...

First stick out of my 54rg mold. My cherry bomb blend. It's better to my taste in a smaller ring gauge, but still enjoyable in this format

If you have any suggestion for roasy temps and times I'm all ears.

Sweet Maria's order landed. First pic will be what composes my "Christmas blend" that will be gifts for friends, and the Ethiopian I'm excited to try. I may gift some of that as well

Last night and this morning. On a 4 day weekend

Placed an order with Sweet Maria's tonight. I ordered a few lbs of the Ethiopian sidama @jammin mentioned earlier and hoping I can coax some amazing berry flavors out of them. The descriptions of their Guatemalan and Tanzanian offerings didn't speak to what I look for in my house blend so I'm...

Lost the blend info on this one. Not a huge loss, but I don't want to roll any more of these. Not bad, but pretty generic and boring. No depth and very one note. Did a terrible job wrapping this one too

Crux Bull and Bear marblehead. Pretty tasty

I make a big 13%abv ris that gets coffee and bourbon soaked cacao nibs. I used a Tanzanian peaberry one year and that was fantastic. Some people like to add a cold brew, I do not, it thins the beer when you add enough to get the flavors to come through. My best success was with a 2/3 blend of...
