Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

I have 2 different batches of Jamaica Blue Mountain cold brewing. One in the Toddy and the other in the Hario. Going to do a taste test in the morning to choose my favorite.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

Picked up this grinder on Craigslist today for $125. Can't wait to French press it and use it for my Toddy once again. https://imageshack.com/a/img12/5548/j17k.jpg

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

I love the grinder, but for my use, it does a less than desirable job for getting it coarse enough for cold brewing. The grounds are still just a bit too fine that it really plugs up the filter. It...

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

I scored 16# of Ethopian Yirgacheffe at $4/lb. Great stuff.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

The roasted Negrita I got from Unclebeanz is a little lighter than anything I typically roast at home. That said, I did find it to be great stuff. I'll probably take it to FC+ the first batch I...

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

How does one make good specialty stuff with the exact same beans/coffee if their regular stuff is crap?

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

I've had a full french press of Unclebeanz Negrita (again) along with some nespresso made Ethopian Yirgacheffe. I'm going to turn into the great Cornholio soon.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

I tried an Ethopian Yirgacheffe in my french press earlier in the week that was very good and I've roasted a couple batches of Sidama Natural this week. Great stuff.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

How long will green beans last before it starts to decline prior to roasting?

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

As mentioned above, he left me a VM within 30 minutes or so of me sending him an email from my invoice acknowledgment. Mistakes happen and while I'm bummed it happened, he's doing everything to take...

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

He already left me a voicemail from the message I sent. They're shipping out a batch today and wants me to keep a bag and then return the rest at his expense. I knew he'd take care of it, but he...

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

Yeah, I sent him a PM about it. Invoice clearly shows the $7.00/lb price rather than the $11.15/lb price for roasted.

I'm sure it'll still be good coffee by the time I get around to it, but...

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

Damn...received my order of 10 # of Negrita from Unclebeanz today. So much for roasting them on my own for fresh coffee as it was all roasted on 12/14.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

So, what's everyone's take on optimum window of resting time after roasting? I find myself often roasting for the next day but thought if try to get ahead of the game a bit.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

I generally roast FC+ anyway and wanted to see how it would be going into French Roast territory. Looking a bit more into it, I may have hit Italian roast, so I will just toss it.
