Pilon made at home by mi wife who makes coffee that you can stand a spoon in. 18 tablespoons of coffee to make two cups.

New coffee! Yellow Maui Kaanapali

roasted yesterday to FC, drip, Silk. A very nice blend of dry and wet processed beans. Sweet, smooth, complex, chocolate and fruit. Great body, this one should improve with rest.

Folgers. With milk and sugar. Thinking about trying some Cuban Coffee soon. Been reading about it today.

The stuff I was reading about was an espresso-type of preparation, but adding sugar to the espresso puck before brewing.

So a Cuban "type" of coffee preparation, as opposed to actual Cuban coffee beans. Sounds interesting. I don't do any espresso, so no comment, on putting sugar, in the puck

Today my Bondo Box was Bean Bombed by a Benevolent Mr B.
A light burning wood scent, with a trace of bent aluminum.

The contents say it's from the Bolivians or E.L.O. ( Ethiopian Liberation Organization ) ( Not the 70's rock group ) But I won't hear none of that ! This clever guise is Mr B's handwork I am sure !! Plus the return address is a van down by the river !

Thank You for the generous sampler ! The puffs will be enjoyed as well ! The only one of these I've ever had is the Tatuaje.
One or two of these are particularly interesting !
My wife wants to sample the coffees with me so I'll be cracking one of these beans tomorrow. Thanks Again !!

Mr B · 03-01-2013, 03:45 PM

No problem at all Brother. Enjoy!

BSB · 03-02-2013, 08:02 AM

Well done Mr B!
The Maui, with 3, very nice cup.

novasurf · 03-02-2013, 03:35 PM

A truly generous gesture, Mr. B.

Bondo 287 · 03-04-2013, 03:48 PM

Proud to report I enjoyed the Ethiopia DP Yirga Cheffe Kochere Friday. Tried it black, then added just a little half and half. Mr B is right, this coffee is absolutely fantastic. I was very frugal with it, and was able to enjoy some again Saturday. The toffee and citrus notes were perfect. Paired Saturday's with a Hoyo de Monterray cigar since Mr B's cigars were stabilizing . I told the wife I needed to treat myself like this more often. I'll be looking for this blend... ! Two more blends to try. Boy education sure is delicious

I thought of making Cuban Coffee as well but I am not a fan of that much sugar in anything.
Most Cubans use a Moka pot for this preperation and not machine made espresso.
The type I researched you put a ton of sugar into your cup, then ad a little moka espresso, stirring to make a thick mud.
Then top off with moka espresso and the mud creates a sweet and thick fake crema.

Came into the office this morning to make a nice cappuccino, went to the fringe and my milk was almost gone.
Somebody must have been using it for their own needs since I opened it yesterday and used exactly half so I would have enough for today.
I guess it's straight espresso today.

Nice hit on Micael Mr.B!

Tredegar · 03-05-2013, 05:52 AM

Via French Roast instant. This is about the strongest, smoothest Starbucks coffee I have ever tried. No burnt flavor or hint of bitterness. Truly enjoyable.

BSB · 03-06-2013, 09:53 AM

New coffee! El Salvador Finca San Francisco Natural Bourbon

roasted 2 days ago to just FC, drip, Silk. Super smooth, sweet, fruity, very nice! From Klatch.

burninator · 03-09-2013, 07:20 AM

Cafe Bustelo from my new moka pot. ZING!

Bondo 287 · 03-10-2013, 02:10 PM

Finished off my Java Sunda this afternoon. Very nice .

Mr B · 03-11-2013, 10:58 AM

Glad you are enjoying them Mikael.

Mr B · 03-11-2013, 11:00 AM
