Roaster discounts

BlackCatCoffee Good to hear from you David. GL. 😊

Well that’s a relief. It read to me, “if you want single origin, go to rave!!! ” (Other roasters are available!).

Will be trying the Honey process.

Not sure why but theres something in general about honey process even if it may be part psychological ☕

@Adrianmsmith How are you getting on with your Cworks offerings? In my humble they really do start to develop a minimum of 10 days post roast

Will update, been away again working.

The peaberry ended up in milk this morning!!

Just the one shot of each so far ….

Just had another!!

Standard 1:2 shot (20g in) then 1: 2 maybe 3 with water . Drinkable. Long aftertaste.

So, is red honey process also considered natural process as per the full description ….

https://www.cworks.co.uk/products/cherry-caramel-brazil?variant=43293054501101

Delightful natural processed Brazilian coffee from a family-run farm in Monte Santo de Minas. Vibrant Morello cherry and sweet caramel, in a word, flawless!

This is a single varietal coffee, yellow Catucaí, the altitude is 1100m, and the process is Red Honey, which is a processing method that involves up to 80% of the flesh of the cherry remaining when the beans are left to dry, which leads to a fuller-bodied coffee. The Speciality Coffee Association score is 84.5, and the roast profile is medium.

This doesn’t have that boozy fermented taste id associated with naturals . Or is that particular to anaerobic , or indeed no particular process at all?!!

Still not convinced it has the full enjoyment of a flat white but…….

Adrianmsmith Pretty much sums up how I see them. I think taking everything into consideration then they still offer a good all round package. Not all of the beans I have had match the descriptions of course! I stick with the Chocolate Fondant for espresso based. I have just ordered a pack of 4 Single Origins to try as filter. Will see how they come out!

dfk41 are you using his discount code “coffeebotherers” as the YT25 discount is first order only? I’ve just come back to cworks for a one-off order of the monthly Discovery bundle which is a house coffee and then something one-off for only £16 delivered (£14.40 with the discount). Perfect for me as I’ll take the more interesting bag for my setup and then I gave the choc nut Colombia to my parents whom I’ve lent my old sage Bambino plus and smart grinder pro so I can get semi-decent coffee when I head over there from time to time!

dfk41

thetravdog I use COFFEEBOTHERERS if I remember! But even without it the stuff is still cheap. Chocolate Fondant on subscription works out at less than £20 per kilo delivered. Not having to pay £3.95 delivery really helps and having that offer on orders above £10 as well. Many roasters do free delivery but the qalification is around £30

thetravdog

dfk41 yeah it certainly is very good value. I think cworks and Wogan are as cheap as it gets for good specialty coffee these days, anything around £8 for a 250g is cheap to me as I tend to be paying around £10-11 for most of my stuff.

Has anyone used or have any comments on Exhale coffee. Big advert push on facebook currently .

New to me ….

dfk41

Adrianmsmith Adrian, you disappoint me at times! Anything on Facebook is grade one shite matey. The ad looks great. Their website ticks all boxes until you reach near the bottom.

Our coffee is roasted in small batches by our roasting partners and bff’s at Press in Brixton on their 12kg Giesen. We’re based out of their roastery ourselves too so work closely with them.

Larger, industrial-scale roasters simply can’t achieve the same quality in terms of roast consistency and taste. They also can’t achieve the same nuanced control over the roasting process to maximise the health benefits in our coffee without sacrificing the taste. Believe us, we’ve tested them too!

Adrianmsmith

dfk41 Adrian, you disappoint me at times!

I didn’t say i was actually going to order any 🤪🤔😁 and now i won’t . thank you. ☕
