Just roasted Cost Rican Fruita de oro. Last time I roasted it I was unimpressed. Used a different profile....smells pretty good after roast, so we'll see:) |

Just roasted BJ's EastTimor this morning. It is fantastic Love at first sip. Also roasted PNG and Peru 1/2 # of each for the coming week or until finished,which I think will happen first. Special treat. I roasted my first 1/2 # of the Panama Gesha -- from SM. Near the award winning site on the farm. Lot # 5 for starters. I am looking forward to trying it tomorrow. I did it three minutes after the start of first crack for a medium roast. iI cant't wait ffor tomorrow and permission to taste. This is more fun than a human being should be allowed and loving every minute of it. ![]() Edited by Clifford on 03/26/2009 4:12 AM May the Force be with your cup

You are quite welcome Ray; glad you are enjoying them in the high desert. I am buried in Hawaiians so I didn't get to the Timors. Next week. Did you catch any chocolates at that level? I got mainly a very clean citrus at city plus but I do want to go more deeply to see if I can find a chocolate in there. B|Java Edited by BoldJava on 03/26/2009 9:28 PM |

I will buy a Gene as soon as my credit card balances will allow. This Forum has become my school for roasting and cupping so I may as well use the same equipment as others. I think I can learn faster this way and obtain repeatable roasts. I have read BJ's discussion threads on COFFEE FORUMS as a thread on the relative merits of the Gene and the Behmor and I am won over. I plan to steadily march up the learning curve as best as my abilities will allow. Thanks Everybody for your teachings :Clap: ![]() May the Force be with your cup

That Honduras Marcala is great coffee! This weekend, the El Salvador Orange Bourbon is one of the coffees that will be going into the roaster this weekend ... Respectfully,

Red Sea Blend (Center, Top) for the first time yesterday - very uneven at a Full City roast... is that normal?![]() Also the standby Bolivian (Lower Left, Full City) plus... after 2.5 months, Zephyr finally remembered to ship me some Guat Huehue El Injerto (Lower Right, City+). I roasted that, too. (they forgot to send the Sumatra Old School that I also requested, but whom am I to complain?)

CHAD CHAD, It is a blend and I've found the roast of the Red Sea Blend to also be somewhat inconsistant. However, give it plenty of rest and you'll love the cup. I take it City ++ I just roasted my first batch of the Rwanda COE distroed by B/J. I took it to French for the espresso machine. A little bird told me it is a WONDERFUL espresso? I'll let you know the end of the week. Jim "How we treat our children determines who we are!"

The Red Sea Blend is all natural process-- 2/3 Ethiopian beans, 1/3 Yemen. Both of these origins roast up somewhat unevenly, as do most dry process African/Arabian coffees.

Ooooh, that Oriente D-P is a stunning cup of coffee! Fruity, very full body. Take it to FC - FC+ and you'll be delighted! And if you're not, send the rest to me and I'll be delighted. One of us should be, anyway. :trink25: I think I'll roast some of that as well... Respect the bean.
