With 3, WOW! Now I know what you are talking about, awesome cup. The dry aroma, on the grind, was fantastic, knew it was gonna be good.

I had another cup this morning! What a great cup about a day past it's prime though, can't remember the roast date! Glad you liked it also, means I am not crazy.

At work, drinking Folgers, at least I'm the one who made it today so it isn't 3 spoonfuls of grounds for 12 cups.

Just had a cup of the Mexican Chiapas I roasted yesterday. Very nice cup. Light body, which surprisingly held up well to my breakfast of a spicy lamb fritta. Actually had some flavors of cinnamon come out as I ate the fritta. Not a flavor associated with this bean, but I"m guessing it was due to the mix with the lamb/spices.

Now onto a cup of the Burundi I roasted yesterday. So far nothing that interesting. Will see as it cools.

Can't wait to try these tomorrow to see how well the extra day of rest does for them.

More of the Mexican Chiapas, now with 2 days rest. I really like this coffee. I wish it had a bit more body, then it would be perfect. But for my first ever roast I'm impressed.

Congrats brother, there is something very satisfying about drinking your own roasts!

I am drinking Black Market Espresso that ApexAZ sent me!

Colombia Tolima Felix Guzman Microlot Roasted 3 days ago to FC, drip, silk. SWEET!, So good. Of course, a limited purchase, 2 pounds. I don't even know if SM still has it. Not that I need any more Colombian

Burundi from the Gacokwe cooperative. American roast. A great balance of acid and sweet. A unique profile IMO. Don't know why it's so outstanding but I've been drinking it for a couple weeks now and I think my local has enough for a couple more batches so I'll be getting more. I didn't think it was possible but this stuff has pulled me away from the current crop of Ethiopia Harar Oromia which IMO is the nicest Ethiopian I've had since a sidamo a few years ago that made my whole house smell like blueberries.

Too mild for me and not a good value. But I do make some decent coin selling it

Chocolate and cinnamon? Man, that sounds good. I don't know if I have anymore of that. Recent purchase?
