Looks fun, I want to try it now
YEMEN HAWARI AL QAFR ROOFTOP DRIED NATURAL CROWN JEWEL
Yemen's have been hit & miss for me over the years.
This one's $9.90ish a pound (not cheap, I know). Kicking around the idea of doing some 3lb splits? Not a lot of commitment but enough of a slice to try something different. This strike anyone's fancy?
Notes of Raisin, Marshmallow, Peach & Brown Sugar. It's Dry Processed (hopefully roof top dried) and sits right in that med/small screen which tends to roast well. Density is on the lower end so although the description states good espresso, it's worth noting that dry processed & low density together can be prone to scorching/tipping.
3lb bag would be $29.73 + $7.75 shipping for a total of $37.48
Any tire kickers?
Thanks, sounds so good. I just went through 5lbs of yemen so not interested but let me know if its great, I will then consider some. Let me know how the konga is!
Sounds interesting, I will go for 3lb.YEMEN HAWARI AL QAFR ROOFTOP DRIED NATURAL CROWN JEWEL

I missed that it was not a dry process coffee until I got the shipment notice. The description read like a wet process coffee.Man that konga is just over 5 a pound if you buy 5 pounds. As if I wasnt suspect enough. Either way just over 5 for gr 1 ethiopian is a killer deal. Edit...I see its wet not dry.
I’ve had some orders split up like that before. I’m guessing that they don’t always bag to order, maybe when they anticipate something will sell fast. Or might just be order cancellations.View attachment 673442 My Sweet Maria’s order arrived moments ago. I ordered 10 pounds of the konga and they shipped it in four 2 pound bags and two 1 pound bags. No big deal but never seen them ship like that before. Anyhow, can’t wait to roast some new beans in the coming weeks.
Exactly what I was thinking. Plus that reminds me that I roasted the last of my Legacy Honduran coffee today.Looks like it is volunteering to be first roasted!!!
Not bad looking beans there. What is your roasting method BH? I see varying colors which is expected with a blended bean mix, didn't see scorching or tipping. You are doing pretty good for just a couple months in...what is your take on the world of home roasted? I couldn't believe the world's of difference! Can't stand coffee chain coffee now, and won't even consider grocery store bought coffee! I have become a snob!!! LoL!!
Nice looking beans. Welcome to the rabbit hole!Roasted up some new beans I got from Sweet Maria's. Turned out pretty good. I've only been roasting for a few months but I think these turned out to be around a full city roast. I prefer roasts a little on the lighter side.
