Actually tesing out some Hualalai Estate Peaberry Medium Dark Roast from my website.. not bad! Quite a caffine kick and a little chocolaty - has a sweet finish.
 
Today I was experimenting with an african blend comprised of medium roasted ethiopian yergacheffe and a dry processed sidamo roasted a bit darker to second crack.

Then I switched to a blend of yerg and sumatra.

Hi "eldub"

It sounds like you're enjoying your new roaster.

Are you in the process of creating your own blend?

Hey, Rose.

Yes, we are creating blends and I'm really digging the process.
 
This morning, it's a Honduras Organic from Beneficio Sant Rosa, roasted to a robust, full-city. I've had 2 cups. There's a good chance that a french press is in my future, later this morning.
 
I'm all over the Sumatra Dolok Sangul I picked up at the 'shrub recently. It's really, really good, with surprisingly clean acidity in large amounts at the city roast. It roasts really oddly, color-wise, as well, making it 'interesting'.
 
South Sumatra robusta when i woke up and now starbucks' Medium Guatemala Antigua
 
I'm actually on my way out the door to get some Starbucks! Quad shot of espresso.. Yeehaw lol! Just got done reading this article on Web MD and found it pretty interesting about the many health benefits of coffee. More reasons to keep drinking :) Health Benefits of Coffee - WebMD
 
Sorry for the viral post but I love this kind of thing, It always leads to great discussion:What coffee are you drinking right now?I'm currently drinking:ANSWER:HARVEY NICHOLS COFFEE - HARVEY NICHOLS BLEND MEDIUM ROAST WHOLE BEAN.Wonderful taste, It is at chocolatey stage I believe. It's round, smooth and full bodied with a silky texture. Kind of like a Dutch style chocolate, a bit more potent and rich. Lacks any bitter or sour flavour which is absolutely spot on for me.
I am drinking coffee I get send from Cambodia called Mondulkiri. Absolutrley delicious!

Curious what Hualalai Estate coffee you are testing as the name is used on several coffees. I worked on a farm that manages a Hualalai Estate label. I packaged their coffee.
Interesting. Small world.

I'd love to know more.
 
I experimented with brewing through our new (used) fetco drip machine today. Using approximately 105 grams of coffee/1/2 gal. ground to medium drip w/ four minute brew time and 10% pre-wet @ 205* produced a brew that was too strong for my taste. (Made a batch of yerg, guat and sidamo.)

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hey CJevens,

Sorry I missed your reply earlier. It's actually the Estate Brand I think. Here's a link if you're interested in checking it out: Hualalai Estate PEABERRY- 100% PREMIUM Kona Coffee | Decent Bean

Course, that batch is long gone now and I've moved onto several others since then. I'm currently trying a papa new guinea arabica medium roast that's slightly okay. Not as much body as I'd normally like...
 
The wife just brought home a cup of Starbucks decaf and its pretty bad when compared to our organic decaf from Honduras. The Starbucks offering is just plain bitter.
