Smoked Coffee...I may be onto something...

Yesterday I had some game hens in the smoker and decided to try smoking some green Timor coffee beans,about 6 ounces..... I used apple wood for the smoke.

The beans were in the smoker for about 4 1/2 hrs,and took on a bit of grayness and a nice smokey aroma. I roasted them to full city roast and today just tried them in an espresso.

There is a definite smokey character,and it really shows up in the aroma while pulling the shot as well.

I will try this again.........
