Funny how that works. The Sumatra Bodhi Leaf, with 3, is WAY better than with 2. Deep and rich, fantastic body. Excellent cup!
Happy Saturday!

Pressed a cup of monkey blend before church.
Sumatra, with 4, after, is smooth and fine.

Nothing special as far as beans go, just Caribou french roast. But I got a new french press and the non-fancy beans taste way better out of this thing than they did from the coffee maker.

That is an awesome press!!!


I am drinking El Salvador Finca La Montanita Bourbon and it is mighty tasty!

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

I'm really happy with it so far. At an insulated 64oz I can get 4 big cups of coffee and the second two are still hot when the wife and I get to them.

I have been pressing in my glass press and then poaring it into a thermos. Yesterday I grabbed a nice little travel press. I saw a nice big carafe at Ikea Saturday kind of like yours, I really wanted to grab it but the boss said not today.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

It is beautiful! But, doesn't the coffee tend to get bitter, sitting in there? Or, if you guys drink coffee like me, it doesn't sit long ;)
Try some Dunn Bros. coffee. Fresh roasted right in the stores.
I grew up in MN, did some canoe trips down the Crow, there were no houses along it back then :eek: only farms. Smoked my 1st cigars on those trips, Wolfe Bros. Rum Soaked Crooks -(P

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Mine doesn't last long but it does occasionally get cold fast if I leave it directly in my glass press.
I add it to a thermos just to keep it hot for the 15 or so minutes I take to drink it all.

New coffee! Ethiopia Pulp Natural Process Limu :cf2 Roasted 2 days ago to FC, drip, dollop. Very nice cup, subdued fruit with very good body.
SM says, "City+ to FC+: A very unique cup that features both wet and dry process characteristics, fruited notes and good body, peach, mango, apricot, herbal notes."
Good cup, enjoying it. It's no fruit bomb, but the added body is a plus :cf1

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

When I do press, I put whatever is left, in the thermal carafe, of my Capresso coffee maker.

I am drinking El Salvador Finca La Montanita Bourbon again. I really like this one!

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

I got this one in the lineup, either on deck or in the hole -(P

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Roasted this morning.
Ethiopia Limu, with 3, deep, rich, fruit is rich wine, not complex but a solid cup. Tastes much darker roasted than it is :confused:

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Sounds tasty.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Just pressed a French Roast Blend I made. Roasted Saturday. All 3 beans roasted seperately.
1/3 Sumatra Tarbarita Peaberry
1/3 Ethiopia DP Sidama Aleta Wondo
1/3 El Salvador Majahual Tablon La Montana
Very nice even w/ only 3 days on it. Spicy Earth, Lightly fruited and a juicy mouthfeel.
Should even get better w/ another day or 2 on it.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Finishing up the Monkey blend today. Should be able to dip into the Satpura Fold espresso blend tomorrow.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

What did you think?
I thought it was good but I like the Moka Kadir Blend better (MKB is no longer available).

Damn, El Salvador Finca La Montanita Bourbon is no longer available either. That has been one I really enjoyed.
