mattyj I was gonna say something about putting a Schapadlock on the bag ... but that might not be the nicest thing to say. 4kg of sumatran ... ya dag! I got it straight away!
Reschsmooth Just make sure you get about 20 years worth of beans. Remus, have you had any luck sourcing beans yet? If not, send me a message and I will send you links to green bean co-ops. P
Remus haven;t got round to home roasting yet. but i intend to start and give it a go. thanks everyone for the help and advice. nz is pioneer coffee roasting your place or just a place you order from ?
kingcoffeecoffee yes home roasting is as easy as all that just a bit of time and practice try reading home coffee roasting by kenneth davids and coffee basic kevin knox. I am a roaster and i started home roasting then supply to cafe, etc with a popcorn roaster or two a cheap way to start out before spending 15 thou of a commerical roaster so go for. Try your local roaster for green beans or the green bean in guy in sydeny for small amount of green beans. Buy a smaple of roasted and under roasted and try and roast them the same. good luck send me a email for more information
Remus ok, almost there lads. imex roaster is in the mail as are the beans. hopefully this weekend i can start roasting !! jason hooked me up with 6 x 500gms of Indian, Brazil, Harrar, Costa Rica, Peru, Kenya.
Remus Quick update: 40% costa rican 30% Peru 20% Mexican 10% Brazil my goodness...what a dayum great cup of coffee. the espresso's i'm pulling out of the pavoni are the thickest, creamiest, best i've ever seen or tasted in my life.
