Barista Bitch Dialing In

Roasted 05/23/23 "The process of producing Washed coffees in Ethiopia will vary slightly from washing station to washing station, but generally speaking the coffee is picked ripe and depulped the same day. There is usually a fermentation period of 8-12 hours in open-air tanks, then washed in water channels to remove the mucilage. The coffee seeds will be spread on raised beds to dry for 5-15 days, depending on the weather." 39. Ripe Apricots, Floral, Chocolate and Blood Orange. 

Roasted 01/25/23 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. I had this at a coffee tasting and my normal at home pour over. The coffee tasting wasn't quite a cupping, but something close to one. The four coffees I had were dialed in to be a little thinner then I'd like, but were good to get the main notes. 36. Berry, sweet cocoa and nutmeg. Again very interesting, a bit different from what I had last time, I don't know if I prefer the new direction or old one.

I could have gone a little coarser, it started out fast then has a slightly longer then usual drawdown.
