Note to burnt coffee drinkers, with the declining production of Kenyan coffee, it's a sin to waste it needlessly. Please enjoy your coffee the way you like it but PLEASE don't buy up all the good Kenyan coffee just to make charcoal from it.
(honestly you can't tell the difference between Kenya Kiriyaga Arabica and Timor Atsabe Robusta once all the flavor has baked out)
Indeed it is!That’s a good looking knife!
With any new green coffee I’ve never tried, I usually roast to the verge of 2nd crack
That's usually my go to as well. It's a good starting point that works well for most coffee.
I wish more hotels offered amenities like that.

He must know people!!
So you say I'm "preaching to the choir" eh? Good to know brother! I've been a coffee connoisseur since trying Gevalia's Kenya Meru back in the 70's. I don't know many real coffee enthusiasts in person. My wife will drink pretty much any coffee that's been sitting in the pot all day. My daughter, who is almost 30, is finally starting to catch on, LOL. She has a "Coffee Club" she goes to and is learning about what I was never able to get her interested in when she was home. I'm sick and tired of arguing with local roasters who think their blackened Kenya AA is the greatest thing since sliced bread and who can't fathom my objections to it.

The one thing that bothers me is the consistency from batch to batch. My favorites I know what to expect. Some roasters it’s never the same twice in a row!
