Barista Bitch Dialing In

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.

 Roasted on 08/05/20 I brewed this in a Kalita wave using notneutral filters with a Ditting KR1203 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. 6.375. Not the biggest fan, if I didn't know it would not have guessed this was a natural. Mostly cocoa notes, some molasses and dried fruit notes. Would be good as a drip, not so much as a pour over.
