Those were some of the ugliest beans I have seen to date. I had to throw out about 10% of them before roasting because of bad quality. They also seemed to be picked at different ripenesses because the beans roast up very uneven. Some are hitting Vienna/French while others are barely hitting City +. The green beans (if you can call them that) are all different shades of yellow to green.
I think it was just a poor quality batch, IMO.
