PHL1968 I’m currently drinking carvetii solitude.
Thank you for mentioning this company. I just googled and price includes shipping. I prefer to order small amounts because I don’t drink a great deal and delivery included makes a big difference- even though I know it’s added to the price of the beans, I don’t think £8.33 a bag is too expensive. I will give them a try.

It’s always a bit tricky. I think that roasters sending coffee to people have an opportunity to indicate their various roast levels with some sort of printed card with the 1st order….so you can see broadly what colour you should expect…then gauge the roast level you like against what they might term light, light/medium, medium, medium dark…etc..
This is my next bag….
To further my ongoing private battle with Guatemalan beans! I’ve just been rewarded with possibly one of the best shots of espresso I’ve ever had. As seems to be the theme with crown and canvas it does exactly what it says on the tin (bag). Raspberry acidity to start followed by rich plum and dark chocolate body and almond lingering aftertaste.
Apologies if my coffee reviews are starting to sound like an episode of posh nosh 🥸
Edit: you can have this as a flat white but you will bring great shame and dishonour to your family.
Triple Co’s Colombian Orange Christmas - perfect festive bean.
For me I am running with
Kiss the Hippo - Uraga, Ethopia natural process. This is for my aeropress
Origin Coffee - El Progresso, Colombia, Tolima, washed. This is in my grinder set up for pour overs.
Systemic Just cracked open some Ethiopia Goru-Muda Guji - wonderful apple, ginger and butterscotch notes through V60.
Just tried it as espresso - not quite dialled in right but the gingery butterscotch notes shine through a flat white and cortado.
.
Where is this from sounds lovely

Got some of that too - gingery apple and butterscotch notes work well as pour over and as espresso.
@Cuprajake - Triple Co

Bit slow😂 put it down to too much chocolate porter am quaffing as we speak.
About to order this from Square Mile. Washed Guatemalan Caturra. Tasting notes are Strawberry, Orange and Chocolate. Anyone tried it?
Got this by accident really. Stopped in coffee lab for an espresso and to grab some beans as a stop gap while I wait for my coffee by the casuals order to arrive.
Pulled as a normal 1:2 espresso was like eating a lemon so followed some of the advice given in the light roast topic and pulled a hotter and longer shot - 16:40+
Really interesting coffee. Lots and lots of strawberries in both smell and taste.
Made a flat white for the other half - basically strawberry milkshake 😂.
I can’t say it’s left me desperate to seek out more anaerobic coffees but quite nice as a bit of fun.
LMSC it’s supposed to be their single origin offering - no info on the bag and their web description isn’t much better other than to say it’s a single origin, anaerobic process. Nothing about the bean or where in Colombia it’s from.
I hadn’t really noticed the colour difference but you’re quite right - Theres a big variance in there.
It was good enough that I’d like to try other natural coffees just probably not from them.
It’s also been a nice exercise for me on my stock gaggia so a good learning experience!
I’m not sure….I threw away the bag and can’t remember what it was. It was from a roasting course I did recently, it’s a bit darker than usual as the company I was teaching liked their coffee slightly darker. It’s delicious, but I don’t know if it was one of my coffees, or one of theirs?
Really ticking me off….
