Thanks guys but I'm afraid its hopeless and we are going to lose one very good bitch sometime this afternoon... Dry Bean. Love that photo. Parked under that magnificent old tree... One thing however, have you never heard of "widowmakers..."?

Sorry to hear about your dog A, it hurts losing them to old age, losing one to snake bite must be extremely upsetting. Widow makers, yep know all about em, this time of year in the Flinders trees not under stress and no winds were forecast, so took a chance. :🙂

Heather took this near a camping spot close to Cleve SA, lovely spot with a walking trail around a reservoir, missy (the lab) loved it, in and out of the water constantly. 🙂

sorry to hear about your pup FC. I'm very attached to my two furbabies and it will devastate me if I lose them.

I'm sorry to read about your Doggie FC. That is most distressing.

I have had gravel, bluestones and sticks in the bean cooler with the roasted beans. This one was a bit different. A popcorn no less, in a batch of Kenyan Asali Co-op. Has anyone had one or a few of these in their roasting episodes?

Brett_H

I've heard that this is quite common. A crop is a crop after all!

I get a few pieces of popcorn most nights when roasting. It's in one of the 4 Colombians we have. I even see the yellow pieces in the raw coffee and delight in letting them go through the roaster. Half the time, it's fully "popped" and is easily seen and grabbed in the cooling tray - light colored against the brown background. Very enjoyable to munch on at night let me tell you. Some of the time, the corn has not popped, or it's in various stages of being roasted........so I still try to munch on it. Worst is when you then get these undeveloped pieces of corn caught in your teeth and you then crave a toothpick or dental floss but you can't stop.......and subsequently suffer. Alas.......I never seem to learn ..........just leave it alone or throw it in the bin.....nope, I can't help myself.

Had a nibble after letting it degas for 15 hours. Nothing special, maybe some corny coffee character... Should have sampled it fresh from the roaster as per normal.cupping procedure. Bugger. [emoji14]

Lock in Hong Kong Eddie??

GaryatGala

I think hong kong is chocka block with skyscrapers Brett [emoji3] . I,ll have a guess n say Durban in SA? The Giesens going well. How do you find the time to travel when you have a roastery to look after unless its co owned?

Brett_H

Did I mean Bankok? I reckon you're on the money Mooney!!

Gary's pretty close! Yes it was SA - Capetown, Table Mt. First time there for me and I have to say it's a really nice place.
