Nope, just the leavings from whatever coffee I been drinking. I put them in a special container when there is not enough left to make a pot. And once a week or so, just grind and brew whatever is there. Sometimes it is AMAZINGLY GOOD

Kenya AA Kitamaiyu. A great bean.

I gotta agree. I have made some very nice blends that way.

Mexican Peaberry was very nice, sweet and chocolatey this morning. Monkey mix is fine this afternoon.

The Nicaraguan Jinotega FTO Mancotal and Sumatra Blue Batak do taste of root beer, especially the Nic, good coffee!

The last of my Panama Finca La Camiseta this morning with a few Snickerdoodles I baked up last night (well, about 3+ dozen that is)...

Roasted a small batch of Cuban Caracalillo. Made a great cup of coffee.

Mr B · 03-29-2011, 11:38 AM

Brazil Organic Fazenda Colina FC+, that was roasted on Friday. Very nice!

BSB · 03-29-2011, 05:47 PM

Tanzania Peaberry, roasted Sat to FC, excellent!

just a quick qeustion. i was at the local market and they have roasted beans for sale. the beans are in a clear bag which allows you to see inside. the bag has some oil from the beans on it, so does that mean that they are not good anymore?

Hard to say. Where were they roasted? When were they roasted? What are they? Oil is normal, it seeps outa the beans after they have been roasted, or during, depending on how dark you roast them. Also, different ways of roasting will produce more or less of the oil. Air roasting=less

i was looking for a date, but couldnt find one, which was my main concern. if i remember correctly it was either from africa or central america beans. it was a dark roast.

Once you hit a dark Vienna or Darker (French) the natural oils will come to the surface of the bean. If they are not that old, they are probably fine.

You really oughta see if you can find a local roaster and buy some fresh. You got Dunn Bros out there?

Zeuceone · 03-31-2011, 07:00 PM

There is a local roaster but I wanted to get something better for my parents, other than folgers. The market has 5x the amount for the same amount than the local roaster. Not sure if the roaster has something more generic in a larger quantity.
