MediumRoastSteam The tasting notes are fine so far - the Black Cherry is absolutely there, and the ganache is understandable, and I’m really not great usually at finding the notes. It’s all just about the aftertaste, and that’s never listed. I really appreciate that you need to try them to see what you like, but it’s just frustrating to have a 250g bag that isn’t what you want, so then going to filter and missing out on espresso for a week 😢
The bambino is absolutely limited, but I’ve managed acceptable results up until now. I definitely want to upgrade in the future, but I’m not convinced that it’s a necessity from this perspective.
Of course, none of this is critical - it’s an undulgence and ‘hobby’ - but it’s one of those things that when you’re looking forward to a morning espresso, and so far you’ve been managing to ‘understand’ how things work, suddenly a curve-ball like this hits and tempers the enjoyment.
I could probably find one bean I like, and stick to it, but where’s the fun in that 😄
