[rooracer78]

erm, yes they are didnt intentionally try to advertise.....ill pull them off if they cause offense..

 

[nzroaster]

No no, no offense caused. Out of curiousity....is this Dean? or his apprentice?
Corey just sent me a kilo of one of your blends, not sure which one, but put it through its paces yesterday.

 

[rooracer78]

oh right, thats cool then.... :grin:

yes, im his new apprentice roaster.....where are u from and what is your connection with 5-senses?

How did you find the core blend?....personally i think it is one of the best blends we have...i'd be very interested to know what you thought of it..

 

[rooracer78]

oh sorry, it wasn't core blend....what did you think of the coffee core gave you?

I am a roaster in QLD, see my website, I talk with Corey a bit through coffeegeek. He sends me some stuff every now and then and vice versa. We actually exchange coffee with a few roasters, had alot of
sydney stuff up lately.

I was really impressed with it, thought it lacked a standout characteristic, (bit bland for my tastes personally) but overall nice flavour. I was quite surprised at your roast style, the bean didnt look too dark but had a dark centre. Lacked a bit of body and didnt cut through milk too well, but great as espresso. Overall a nice espresso coffee though, is it a commercial blend of yours?

 

[rooracer78]

is it a commercial blend of yours?

Yes, our customers design there own blends according to the taste they are after..

i had a quick peruse through your website....looks good!! love the idea of your blog pages.
