COFFEE: What are you drinking? - Page 24

Blak Smyth · 06-20-2011, 02:00 PM

I was recently at a casino in NY and had the best cup of coffee ever in one of the casino restaurant. When I asked the waitress what brand it was, she said people ask her that all the time, however she was unsure how to pronounce it. She failed at explaining the container to me as well. She said it comes in a bag that attaches to the machine thingy? I had her go write the name of it down, I will try to supply that name when/if I can find it.
I am at work now and the napkin with the name should be somewhere at home.

Another note I have a friend that order his beens green. he roasts them with a bar-b-que grill roaster attachment ($500) and packages them for a charity.
If he was interested in more business I would include more info, needless to say the coffee is great. If any of you have ever thought about roasting your own beans, do it! He sells it to me at $10/pound.

At home I have a Kuerig brewer and try many different brands and flavors of coffee.

Folgers Black Silk. Easy and good. Pretty much the only store bought ground I will buy.

BSB · 06-22-2011, 09:47 AM

Ethiopia Idido Misty Valley, from my freezer

roasted 2 days ago to 1/2 city, 1/2 FC, drip, splash. Very sweet, distinct BLUEBERRY, almost as good as when fresh. Must be the 1/2-1/2 roast because it didn't come out this good last time. I'm gonna use up the pound I got left.

Outstanding. The fruit of the harrar comes through but the cup has the heavy smooth java to balance. I think I prefer it this way to having the blend mixed before roasting.

Mattso3000 · 06-29-2011, 03:47 PM

Iced americano with classico espresso.

Definetly! I like doing 2 different roasts of the same coffee and blending, too.
Bali Blue Moon today, roasted to FC-FC+ 2 days ago, drip, splash. Very nice, smooth, creamy, chocolatey, earthy and a savory hint that lingers in the finish.

I love this Kuerig coffee machine, and at macy's they sell the donut shop blend and sumatran blend; they are really great, flavour, and no bitterness.
