Finishing up an India Poabs Organic Seethargundu Estate, roasted 4 days ago to FC, drip, splash. Smooth, complex, with a nice long finish. A very nice coffee, from SM.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Knocking back a little more of the Woodchuck before heading out for the evening. I think the Sidomo roast from these guys is a little light to be my morning coffee, but it's killer in the evening.

Trying to get a coffee pass going if any of you guys haven't made a trip to the passes forum lately. I'm going to leave it open until next Friday, if there's no interest I'm drinking it :D Link

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

From the Press:
60% Guatemala Acatenenango -Finca La Soledad at Vienna &
40% Kenya Nyeri Ngunguru at Full City+.
Deep Dark Chocolate, Baking Spices, Slight Citrus on the sides of the tongue and a small amount of bitter on the back end.
Overall a nice dark blend.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

A special lighter roast of the Bolivian, city-city+, clean, sweet, floral, good cup. But, not what I would choose to drink everyday. I like it darker and chocolatey.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Tried a blend this morning of:
75% Rwanda Kibuye Gitesi at Full City +
& 25% El Salvador La Montanita Pacamara at City +.

It is decent, but seems to be lacking someting. Its a nice sweet Mid-Range blend.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

just gaged on some nasty stuff the wife brewed....time to get out the French press...BRB....

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

The last of a batch of Ethiopia Amaro Gayo Organic Natural, roasted to city-city+. Smooth sweet, nice. Some brandied cherry as the cup cools. This was a much stronger in yesterday's cup.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Very nice blend this morning.
50% Guatemala Acatenango -Finca La Soledad at Vienna+
and 50% El Salvador La Montanita Pacamara at City+
Very nice flavors. Fullness in the background from the dark roast (coco, baking spices) and a fruity, citrus form the Lighter El Salvador.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Vienna+ :eek: I don't know that I have ever roasted a coffee that dark...on purpose.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

You have never roasted a French Roast? That is beyond Vienna. This was just short of French.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Well, I guess I have, but not for personal consumption :cf1

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

I dont that often either, but thats how the brother-in-law likes it. This bean actually took the dark roast very well.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Drinking some local roast from a joint called Buffalo Mountain... got a gift card for XMas so I figured I'd try it out... really nice flavors, definitely makes the house smell like chocolate after grinding...

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

I roasted an "old" favorite, from earlier this year, yesterday. Looking forward to the 1st cup tomorrow. El Salvador El Carrizal, tastes like chocolate covered in cherries. Hope I hit the roast right.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Having a very nice blend today:

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Just ran across these:
http://thecoocoup.com/coffee/beans.jpg
Found this one on a site that said it was from SM but I can't find it there.
Was trying to find what the numbers represent.
http://www.sweetmarias.com/roastproc...ing-allin1.jpg
Do you think 8,9 & 10 are city? 11 & 12 would be FC? 13 would be FC+?
