Thing is, now that I've roasted some for presspot brewing, I find no fruit at all in the cup. Re-reading the description, I might characterize my roast as "City+", where the fruityness fades and gives way to a more raisin sweetness. This does seem more in line with my current batch. Maybe...

Hi Guys, I jumped all over the Peru Organic Puno Quispe because of the fruit-forward description. It seemed to me that with the fruity notes and heavy body that this coffee might be terrific for espresso! Also, I just love some fruit in ...

... navigating that BC fog... Yeah, no minor disasters like that since. More fine coffees roasted and consumed, most recently used the last of the Peru #14 in an ad-hoc morning blend with a bit of the Pitaloka making one part to two parts of the overnight rested Buenavsita #1738. Yeah, left the ...

I pan roasted the Peru Organic Puno Lot #33 yesterday, stopped just after the end of FC. Seem to be an uneven roast and looked quite dark, but then I dont usually roast that light. I am going to give it another day or two rest before ...

I don't see a thread for any of the recent lots from Peru, so I thought I'd kick one off with a few brief words about the Organic Lot #16 which I've finally gotten around to roasting. May have gone a bit beyond the ideal City finish, but at 13⅓% weight ...

... If you choose to order from more than one of my offerings, please take the base price (Sidamo $4.08, Sumatra $3.47, Colombian $3.49, Panama $2.91, Peru Norte $3.67, Rwanda $4.06, Ethiopian d/c $3.04) plus the 50cents per lb. Club fee, multiplied by the number of lbs., and prices from your other ...

... certainly not any wrong in getting five pounds of each of these. If only I'd been as successful with the smaller "tasting" bags - the Peru #16 and Bolivia #1738, which I'd hoped might still be available if they struck me that way, have both dropped off the list - if not quite before ...

... the weather in NJ allowed me to roast this past Saturday (I've been chomping at the bit!). I ran two separate roasts (Ethiopian Illubabor and a Peruvian) and was surprised when I noticed a lot of smoke early (3-6 minutes) into the roasts. The smoke was coming out from around the door seal, and ...

... - a French Roast blend that corresponded exactly to my expectations - i.e.: 470 degree bean temp, dark roast, 20% weight loss. Roast 2 was a Peru that I took to 457 degrees, I called it light Vienna (medium dark) and it had a 17% weight loss - I pulled this before 2nd crack was audible and ...

... the stock to get me to the spring/summer bounty. 5 lbs of the Majahual and the Mandheling-Aceh, smaller bags of the Buenavista #1738, Peru #16, and No-Name-O. I have an almost embarrassing amount of some origins in the freezer, so no more from those parts of the world for now! I was ...
