Go easy on the Oak trees tonight, @BamaProud

my folks live in the smallest town ever & the water is downright offensive in the summer. the sulphur content is so high that you can hardly stand the smell before you even attempt to drink a glass. if it weren't for this, id probably think everyone has the same tap water...this is of course...

What was everyone's top 3 coffee moments of 2019? It's been a really busy year for our group. Several roaster upgrades & many folks finding new brewing equipment such as espresso machines and grinders. Id like to hear what stood out to everyone this year: - favorite coffee? - favorite...

I did receive the coffee last week but haven't even opened the bag yet. That recent "super sweet" Ethiopian from SM's is on the way along with a DP Brazilian. When those arrived, Im gonna roast all 3 so Im hoping to report back on all them after the holiday. Im excited about that Brazilian...

brewed an Aeropress cup of my 2 latest roasts this morning, Kenya Kiambu (Sweet Marias) & the Ethiopian Hafursa Tej processed Crown Jewel. prepared the cups back to back so I could sit back & drink them consecutively. really fun to do this since the AP brews about an 8oz cup so 2 servings...

I’m drinking the Kiambu right now. It’s solid. Good acidity. Roasts predictably.

^that reminds of doing gunnery in the Army. dudes in the hummer would be getting rained on with hot 30 cal brass & every so often a piece would fall into the collar of someones uniform. You'd see them later with a burn mark on their neck shaped like a tube of chapstick.

These farmers have no respect for saving a file when it comes to their naming conventions lol

^just do like I do & wait until you’ve had 5 or 6 IPA’s before you decide to order:drunk:

i got the email for this & passed on it but a regular on Homebarista sounded convinced enough that i bought 5lbs. hopefully it delivers... not sure why i keep going back to Geisha's.... https://www.greencoffeebuyingclub.com/index.php?topic=21709.0

Im anxious to see pictures about the MCR venting! That’s one thing I’ve REALLY wished I did “right” now that the dust has has settled. The B vent I have now works great but when you’re going full stop it makes sense to get the proper equipment. Your new model has a few features I’m also quite...

can’t wait to hear this journey unfold!

@applescrap, @shelly_belly & anyone else that has roasted the 2019 Banko. Do you remember if it was a longer or shorter roast that you noticed blueberry in the cup? I keep bumping into posts talking about a longer roast on DP Ethiopians brings out blueberry. A recent one mentioned the...

Dude - that Tanz is a hell of a score and one of the very best pour over grinders money can buy. Ive got a Ditting KR804 which I assume has a very similar 80mm burr set. The grind quality is unparalleled. I've benched it against my Kafetek Monolith Flat & despite it's blinding grind speed its...

Thats puzzling to say the least. Sounds like a continuity issue maybe? The last probe issue I had was due to cement failure so the probe was pulling out of the sheath. Since it wasn't at the tip, temps were sliding off & it really threw me for a loop. When your's fails it appears to snap to...

What was the problem you experienced?

NO 5lb bags left if anyone wants one: Had a heck of a time getting Artisan reading my temp probes this weekend. Thank goodness I have a friend who is an expert on all things Artisan. Had to reinstall Phidgets(22) drivers, upgrade to Artisan 2.0 from 1.5 and finally, re-authorize Phidgets to...

Anyone interested in splitting some of this Honey Processed Ethiopian? No berries mentioned, just a real comfort food sounding type coffee. CJ1317 - Ethiopia Hafursa Waro “Tej” Process Crown Jewel Notes: - 9 minute roast time yielded flavors of "cooked peach, cantaloupe & honey nut Cheerios"...

90pt Kenyan. AB screen. Think I’ll grab 5lbs https://www.sweetmarias.com/kenya-kiambu-fram-farm-ab-6248.html

That honestly sounds like you may have nailed the roast. That description makes total sense to me.
