Barista Bitch Dialing In

I brewed this in a Kalita wave using notneutral filters with a Niche Zero grinder. My recipe is 28g coffee, 400g hot water not necessarily aiming for any particular time, but somewhere between four and five and half minutes. I try to do a 50g bloom in the first 45 seconds then three or four more pours. brewed this in a Kalita wave using notneutral filters with a Niche Zero grinder.

I wish I brewed this as an espresso, it felt fairly orthodox, but I have a feeling that it would have been amazing as an espresso. Lots of dark chocolate notes, some berry jam and a creamy mouth feel. 

18.7g in 24 seconds 32g out I liked this a lot. Vanilla syrup at the front, molasses throughout, bittersweet chocolate and the barest hint of candied citrus.

Another interesting coffee, dark toffee at the front, brief blackberry, unsweetened almond butter and deceptively complex.

Normally I avoid Yemen coffees I generally am not a fan of a lot of the roast flavors. And while this has some flavors I associate with darker coffees that I avoid it still is good. Tobacco throughout, developed wine notes and dark chocolate.

I've had a lot of coffee samples recently since I am setting up a cafe, hopefully as a multi-roaster. The owner of Tico Coffee Roasters brought some preground coffee as for a coffee tasting so these are a little different than how I normally write these.  Her recipe was 24g coffee with a 75g bloom at 205°F water for thirty seconds with an additional 300g pour in the clever and then start the pour down at 2:30 finishing roughly at three and a half minutes.  Last, but not least is the decaf. I liked it, I don't know why I never really served it before a bit orthodox, but better than many decafs I've tried. Chocolate throughout, orange syrup and roasted peanut.

Lots of sweet cherry at the front followed by dark chocolate and a little nutty.

Very earthy, with very dark chocolate notes, a full body and a very silky finish.

Thickish mouth feel, smoked vanilla, honey sweetness and tons of lingering chocolate notes.

Almost a berry bomb, but not quite. Black cherry at the front, berry jam, peaches and very clean.

Lots of blood orange notes, some caramelized sugar and sweet red grapes at the end. 

Roasted 3/10/22 18.6g in 27 seconds 28g out Only a day off roast and very temperamental, but just like I remember it, lots of cherry and strawberry jam and bright lemon throughout.  I haven't really said much, but I am at a new place and I am trying to set it up as a multi-roaster and so far have been trying to bring in a lot of my old favorites.

Lots of chocolate notes throughout, light brief floral notes and some light apricot sweetness.

Honestly disappointing, however I tend to find Barefoot's coffees, espresso in particular, tend to be on the mediocre to average side. Last time I described Redcab to someone was that it is agressively mediocre. I honestly only got around to this because I have left my corporate dining barista job on Monday and felt like I should have finally record them.
