Remove what? I am missing something here.
Quakers? What are quakers?

Finally roasted the Espresso Monkey Blend last night. Can't wait to try it!

Very nice. I plan on roasting some of that next weekend, depending on how much I have left by then.

I have overroasted some Bolivian Beneficio Buenaventura Lot 45 to a LV-V roast that I finally started drinking. It's not bad but I didn't want to roast it quite so much.

I also ended up overroasting some El Salvador Majajual - Tablon La Montana. Also probably LV-V. Ugh.

I need to turn my heat down some I think.

They are the super light brown, almost Tan colored beans. They often times can add a bad or sour taste to the cup.

ApexAZ · 01-31-2012, 12:35 PM

I think I remember reading that they are beans that weren't fully ripe when picked. Is this true?

Mr B · 01-31-2012, 01:46 PM

Yes, that is true. Check out the Glossary in the Library on the Sweet Marias page. Very helpful.

Found it thanks, good info there!

Being OC, I pick out everything that doesn't look right. Including the quakers, underroasted and scorched. I use the max amount of beans in the FR, so I get a few scorched, every roast.

BSB · 02-01-2012, 08:36 AM

Just did a small batch, of the Colombia Guzman, to city+

Blak Smyth · 02-01-2012, 08:38 AM

Roasted Moka Kadir last night, it smells amazing.
I gotta say this is the best smelling roast so far, not perfectly even roast though.
Can't wait to try it this weekend!

That is one of my favorite blends. You won't get that even of a roast, with the pre-roast blending of different coffees. Not usually anyways. There is gonna be some difference between the different kinds of beans. Also, if memory serves me well (and it often doesn't

) there should be a fairly good amount of quakers in that blend.

I pulled out about three quakers of a 1/3 pound.
Man the aroma alone has me excited!

BSB · 02-03-2012, 09:18 AM

Brazil Cerrado Fazenda No-Name-O I did this 2 tone, half city+ for the nuttiness, half FC+ for the chocolate. Chocolate covered nuts sounded good to me

First cupping on Sunday.

Mr B · 02-03-2012, 09:26 AM

LOL, that does sound good!

BSB · 02-03-2012, 03:35 PM

Just finished roasting something different, Sweet Maria's Shanga Babor SWP Decaf Blend, took it to FC. SM's description on this sounds excellent, thought I'd give it a try. Who knows, maybe can start drinking coffee in the evenings

That sounds interesting.

I have been thinking the same thing, when I crave a good cup in the evening.
