Shane is lacking in the facial hair department so he never has to worry

Another cup of Jose's vanilla nut.. I don't have much time to roast my own, or I'd think about it. I have to say, for the price, the Jose's brands of coffee have never let me down!

I had the last of a batch of SM's Monkey Blend this morning. Makes a pretty decent regular cup. Roasted off half a lb of Burundi that'll get sampled tomorrow.

I've been loving the Burundi's, Great at City + to FC.

City + was what I roasted it too. Looking forward to it.

Going to start lurking here to get ideas

Nothing fancy. I've been on a Cafe Bustelo kick for the last couple of months. Stuff taste great through a 1 cup Melita or packed in to an Espresso maker. And, its only $3.68 or $3.78 at one of the big box stores...

Just bought a sampler of green beans.
Roasted some Papuan yesterday and its awesome today
in the cup.

Ethiopia Dry Processed Grade 1 Aricha

roasted 12 hours before to city+, drip, Silk. Pretty good, but I think it will be better in the Coffee Kinetics roaster, so I did a 4 pot batch tonight.

Ethiopian coffees for me always need about 36 hours of rest before they start tasting good.

I was blown away by an Ethiopian coffee, a couple weeks back, that was about 4 hours out of the roaster

Started doing 12 hour rests.
I hope this comes around, actually, it's starting to already. I'm just not much of a city-city+ guy. I like it FC-FC+.

BSB · 12-06-2012, 08:14 AM

The Aricha is better, but I think I got it too light. Ah, the joys of home roasting.

hammondc · 12-06-2012, 08:15 AM

Starbucks Sumatra.

Blak Smyth · 12-06-2012, 08:22 AM

Peruvian Caramel Capp and a Macchiato in my new Rocket cups

CigarSquid · 12-06-2012, 08:39 AM

Those look good Shane. Wish I could justify getting a machine.

BSB · 12-07-2012, 08:58 AM

The Aricha, with 36 hours, drip, Silk. Ultra smooth, mild, some sweetness, good cup, but....I did roast this way too light. Thinking maybe I'll roast up a strong flavored Sumatra and blend. Then I would have 6 days worth though

BSB · 12-08-2012, 08:09 AM

A blend of the Aricha and Sumatra Toba Batak peaberry

roasted 22 hours ago to FC+, drip, Silk. A nice Mokha Java type blend, smooth, some sweetness, earthy funkiness.
