I became a coffee snob years ago, when I was still building audio stuff I ran into a guy that showed me the world of home roasting and blending different beans. I can’t drink any other coffee except what we roast at home

The problem now is I’ve gone full carnivore, and had some blood pressure concerns ( sucks getting old and fat)

I stopped the coffee for awhile and had no real issues leaving it out

But my lady found a new bean and she roasts in a cast iron wok that makes a wonderful brew. I’ve been having one cup with butter in the morning and it’s amazing

But I noticed my sweet tooth and other cravings coming up

Maybe I stop for a few months completely than pick it up again

Anyway, enough rambling

Try roasting yer own beans at home it’s amazing

Respect! 🫡 ☕️

same here, so I turned it into a Cottage family business

Cool beans

Hot coffee

My favorite blend

1pt Tanzanian Pea Berry (city ++)

2pt Ethiopian Yrgachafee ( normal recommended roast )

Crap now I can’t remember

Anyway one of the two is roasted darker than normal recommend (Sweet Marie’s recommendation) then experiment with ratio

Love this one !

But my lady whom I’ve turned this over to gets to decide what we drink

Our favorite ( when we can get it) is Tres Rios Costa Rica . Some small estate on the side of a volcano.

Right now she is using a Honduran estate grown

I’m happy with it

She likes roasting, out doors of course

Have fun

Drinking a Yirgacheffe gr1 that I roasted on Wednesday. It’s fantastic.

I buy a lot of experimental teas and green coffees from:

they offer a refined selection at solid, sometimes below market prices
