Ethiopian Tchembe Roasted it just past the 1st crack. Coco and bananas. What a way to start the day.

Hmm...where'd you get that? Sounds good.

Tried some of the SM's Liquid Amber blend this evening. Not bad but I think I need to roast darker. Had an off sour taste. I'll make adjustments on the next roast.

I got it from my uncle. Uncle Beanz

The Brazil, with 4, excellent, great mouthfeel, nice, sweet flavor. Highly recommended!

New coffee! Sumatra Lintong Tano Batak

Roasted 2 days ago to just FC, drip, Silk. Tried for city+ but even though I stopped just at the 1st sign of 2nd crack, it came out darker than I liked. Still, EXCELLENT! Complex, sweet, loaded with that funky earthiness of a good Sumatran. I'm liking this one a LOT

So you experienced the same thing with this Sumatran as I did. It darkens pretty quick. I"m still on the fence with this one. That funky earthiness to make smells/tastes like raw green bell peppers.

I usually don't let it rest this long but I took Friday off and left it at the office.

New coffee! Rwanda Nyamasheke Karengera

Nice cup, great mouthfeel, interesting sweetness, I like it!

Burundi from Gacokwe station. American roast. I've been drinking almost nothing else for weeks now. Perfect blend of bright acidity and smoothness.

CounterCulture's El Gavilan as a pourover or press; Toscano as an espresso. The Gavilan is nice and clean, with light, pure flavors, and is excellent iced. The Toscano is a lovely sweet Snickers bar of caramel, nuts and chocolate, good in milk or as a straight shot. Both very nice with a cigar.

New coffee! Brazil Fazenda Rainha

Roasted 36 hours ago to FC, drip, dollop. Smooth, sweet, nice mouthfeel, mild acidity. A very nice Brazilian, from Klatch.

Ain't that the way it is? Sucks!
New Coffee! FT Rwanda Cafe Femenino

Roasted 2 days ago to FC, drip, Silk and then dollop in 2nd cup. Pretty nice, smooth and mild, with a mouthfeel that improves as the cup cools. Frm Klatch, produced by all female farmers.

buddhadaddy · 04-19-2012, 01:24 PM

Bodhi Leaf Rwandan!

Nice smooth and oh so tasty!

Mr B · 04-20-2012, 02:10 PM

This morning was Kenya Nyeri AA Gotomboya at FC.
It was reccomended for City to FC but it seems like I prefer these Kenyans at FC+. This was real good but not great. It improved very much as it cooled.
The last 2 Kenyans I did at city+ & FC tasted a littl grassy.
