New coffee! Costa Rica Finca Bella Vista :cf2 roasted 2 days ago to FC, drip, dollop and splash. A very nice, bright, complex cup. Some rindy citrus, nice sweetness, tea and jasmine notes. A very good cup, I think I prefer this one with the splash of 2% :cf1 from SM

I don't. My tummy likes it with a little white, to offset the acidity.

CR Finca BV, with 3, excellent :cf1 Crazy thing about this coffee, there is a very strong nutty dry aroma, there is no nuttiness at all, in the cup.

A free cup from the D-fac. Its one of the best cups i have had in a while. I have been stuck in BMT where i only got to smell coffee. so its nice to be able to sit down and have a cup.

CR FBV, with 4, the best of the 3 days. More sweetness, less rind in the citrus. This is a really good cup :cf1
New coffee tomorrow :D

Still drinking the India Poabs Organic Seethargundu Estate. So far it has been one of my least favorites. I kind of overroasted it slightly, so next batch I will try something closer to full city.

Had another cup of Espresso Monkey Blend this morning, one of my favorites so far.

Are you making Espresso out of it or coffee press?

I only press currently. This may sound dumb, but I would need an espresso machine to make espresso right?

Mr B 02-13-2012 01:11 PM

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 
That my understanding, LOL. I dont have one either. But I love my press. I will have to give that blend a try.

New coffee! Colombia Tolima - Einar Ortiz Microlot :cf1 Roasted 2 days ago to FC, drip, dollop. An excellent cup with great balance between bright and body, nice, lemony citrus, honey sweetness. I like this a LOT! 1 pound limit at SM, highly recommended!
This one is seriously better with 1/2&1/2 than 2%, go figure.

Papua New Guinea Baroida Estate at Full City+ w/ 3 days on it.
Very Tasty. This one is always so consistant. Thats why I got 10 lbs of it from my last 2 orders LOL.
Nice Cinnomin and Nutmeg with hints of Pear and light citrus.

YOW! That does sound good. I know I had it, i'll have to go back and check my notes. I don't remember being that impressed by it.
Oh well, to each their own :D

Its actually a very good base to blend other beans with (it plays well with others). Especially the juicy, fruity varieties (El Salvador, Costa Rica etc.)

Trying out my new Lattissima+
