That was Sweet Maria's. It was very tasty, but I still have memories of the Rwanda FT Dukunde Kawa Musasa from last season. That was one of the Best beans I have ever had.

WOW! musta been good if you can remember from last season. The only long term memory I have of any coffee is Ethiopia IMV, best coffee EVER! Okay, I might recall a few others, but that one stands out.

Just finished up what I had left of the Bolivian Beneficio Buenaventura Lot 45.

Tomorrow I plan on making some moka espresso with some El Salvador Majajual - Tablon La Montana.

Nice earthy, baking spice cup.

Colombia Guzman Micro, roasted 3 days ago to city+. I like it better at the darker roast. Hmmm, no surprise, I guess. Now, why did I do this lighter roast?

New coffee! Sweet Maria's Shanga Babor SWP Decaf Blend Roasted 24 hours ago to FC++, drip, dollop. Surprisingly mild and smooth for as dark as this roast came out. Nothing bad about it decaf wise. I like it.
I will defintely slow the roast and shoot for lighter the next time. It'll be a while, I have enough for 5 more half pots.

New coffee! Brazil Cerrado Fazenda No-Name-O Roasted 2 days ago two tone, city+-FC+, drip, dollop & splash. You know what I was going for and I nailed it, chocolate covered nuts! I'm hoping the chocolate comes a little more forward as the coffee rests, but it's plenty good right now. Both with 1/2&1/2 and 2%.

El Salvador Majajual - Tablon La Montana. Roasted to light vienna on accident (still trying to dial in the popper roasting), but enjoy it very much. One of my favorites so far.

New coffee! Costa Rica Finca Bella Vista roasted 2 days ago to FC, drip, dollop and splash. A very nice, bright, complex cup. Some rindy citrus, nice sweetness, tea and jasmine notes. A very good cup, I think I prefer this one with the splash of 2% from SM

I don't. My tummy likes it with a little white, to offset the acidity.

Two-tone Brazil, with 3, Excellent! Sweet and smooth and nutty, with good body and mouthfeel. I couldn't be happier with how this came out.
