HarveyMushman On topic. I don’t mind the idea of a discount for subscribing to buying so much per month, but I want a good online system for easily changing the beans, and very easily skipping or rescheduling a delivery in case I’ve used more or less coffee than usual.
Have you found such a system you’d be confident to share?…..

I wish I had!
The best system I’ve seen is the NA beer ‘Lucky Saint’. I subscribed to that for a while and it was really easy to skip a week or change delivery day etc… they only had one product type though so probably easier to manage.
I think NewGround might offer something similar although I haven’t bought from them in a while. Origin Coffee also have an app so might offer some level of subscription management.
I guess we’re also talking about the ‘discovery’ style subscriptions though where it’s less about convenience and more about finding new coffee.
Either way I do prefer just finding and purchasing coffee as and when I need it. The discounts for subscribing are also usually pretty negligible.

Thats the bit i dont get!! I like to order something i like the sound of.
I usually buy 1kg of my goto and 250g of something that sounds interesting.
My wife purchased an advent calendar for me with 24 x approx 22g samples.
Now i did drink them all but didnt actually think “must order that” for any
Surprisingly i found a dial in that worked ish for most of them to be in a ball park!!

Adrianmsmith you’re a good candidate for roasting your own coffee at home, you know. No turning back once you start…
I Have to admit i would love to try, but, unfortunately i just dont have the spare time to get in to it . 🤓

Adrianmsmith I am sure you did. 😊
Adrianmsmith well if you do start, I can try to help you out with some “profile targets” (I go full manual on the gas hob with the Roastino). A 100G roast takes me less than 15 mins, end to end. Getting really nice results also.
Please, everyone, stop with all this “encouragement”.
I know this is a very helpful and friendly community but sometimes it’s just too much unnecessary temptation. 🤓☕
Thank you kindly .

Adrianmsmith Every one has a choice. Perhaps, this is preparing you for a New Year resolution. Hahaha 🤣.
Take care!
