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. 43. Dried cranberries, lightly roasted almonds, heavy body and very light acidity. A little boring, but would be a good espresso.  No roast dates on the bags made me very angry.

Roasted 11/26/22  A Blend composed of Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Indonesia. Washed & Natural  Cranberry, Carmel, fudge & pecan. Surprisingly delicate. Good for both espresso and filter, I think it shines as an espresso. I wasn't expecting much since I tend to find holiday blends to be dark and heavy on the brown spice notes. 

Roasted on 09/01/22 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. 42. Mandarin orange, peach, milk chocolate and creamy. Regardless of trying not to be biased against nonpremier coffee regions, I always have. A little apprehension about trying them, thinking that I am going to be trying an earthy or tobacco heavy coffee, but I am glad that this is nothing like that. It is a very silky body and quite easy to enjoy, I doubt I'd be willing to pay what this costs, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
