Noë Valley Coffee Roasters Guatamala Finca El Rancho Washed

Roasted on 07/19/22 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. 39. Fruity, golden syrup, cacao. I've been lazy with my tasting notes recently, but this is another one that I think would be good as an espresso or drip.

Roasted on 07/25/22 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. 44. Red berries, chocolate and floral. Would be nice as an espresso or even as drip as a daily drinker. 

Noë Valley Coffee Roasters Honduras San Vicente

Roasted on 05/27/2021 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. Lots of dark chocolate notes throughout, some bright blueberry and a lot of butterscotch. It feels similar to a chocolate covered berry. 

Noë Valley Coffee Roasters Honduras San Vicente Espresso Revised

Using a Niche Zero Grinder and an Anza espresso machine at 22, 19.5g in, 15 seconds and 35g out. It is a lot thinner than the last time I had it, but more intense albeit briefly. Blackberry at the front, dark chocolate and sweetness throughout. I am not sure if I prefer it like this. Everything felt like it was there for a second and gone in another.
