eggbert Did a bitsa roast last night as my first back after the temporary coffee ban in the Eggie household. Finished off the last of my Colombian Volcan Galeras Supremo and topped it off with Peru ceja de silva. Not got a lot of confidence in how it will turn out, but we shall see in a few days.
cosmic_couple22 Welcome back to the roasting club eggbert :thumb: and hope wifey wants to drink coffee soon. Chester
eggbert She took a few sips of a white coffee I had again this weekend and liked it. Not enough to want a whole coffee to herself but that was all the encouragement I needed. Now to see if I can wait a week or more to have a crack at making a decent coffee out of them.

GaryatGala Roasted 620 gm each of Costa Rica Rio Negro RFA Brazil Monte Alegre Estate Rwandan Inzovu Co op Colombian Hacienda Curazo Supremo to produce 2 kg roasted and post blended. The Brazil, Rwandan and Colombian was roasted on a longish profile. The Costa on a more shorter steeper profile. Beans are from the current crop from Bean Green. Have to say I like the cloth bags they came in. Easy to re tie. Great for recycling into other products too.
cosmic_couple22 lovely bit of roasting there Gary, nice and even across four batches. Great job. :thumb: Chester

Rider No mate, 3 batches. That is 1.5 kg nett weight, so a generous 250gm bag. 3 loads of 630 gm netts around 510-520 roasted. Time consuming but living in the country we have a great barter system......... :laugh:
Brett_H Awesome... I hope you get a suitable 'trade' for your efforts.... Possibly a '65' Semillion!? 😉
Rider Yes mate, The 'trade' has been going on for quite a few years..... Gotta love the country barter system.... 😉
Rider 350 gm Panama Hacienda La Esmerelda Palmyra Estate Behmor 1600 plus First crack just on 12, second just shy of 17 Great colour, rest for a bit and try. Home use.
