luvdunhill Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 What do folks think about the Ode? A bit cheaper and seems to be a decent grinder on paper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 so I have to say I absolutely love the niche at this point. It's a very well thought out grinder, especially for espresso. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naamanf Posted February 29, 2020 Report Share Posted February 29, 2020 Suggestions on where to get roasted beans? Need to stock up on a good variety to sample, figure I’ll need the extra energy to runaway away from Coronavirus zombies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMoney Posted February 29, 2020 Report Share Posted February 29, 2020 This won’t be a sexy suggestion, but I found a local roastery I enjoy just by punching “coffee” in to google maps and sampling the roasteries that popped up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Posted February 29, 2020 Report Share Posted February 29, 2020 So far my favorites are Reanimator in Philly and Heart Roasters in Portland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far & away, my favourite: https://squareup.com/store/caffe-amouri I tend towards Badlands, No. 7, Monsooned Malibar, and Columbia La Vega, but Dutchess is by far their biggest seller. If you want one with an animal connection, Intelligentsia Black Cat Project is also really good. https://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/coffee/black-cat-project-espresso I should probably get their decaf, as I don't really like Caffe Amouri's decaf offerings, and I did like regular Black Cat Project when I was drinking it.

HemiSam Posted February 29, 2020 Report Share Posted February 29, 2020 DoubleShot out of Tulsa (and I'm nowhere near OK) is my favorite. Drinking the Panama Bambito Natural right now. Very good. https://www.doubleshotcoffee.com/collections/central-america/products/panama-bambito-natural The Maduro is always good (Columbian) and what put them on the map. https://www.doubleshotcoffee.com/collections/south-america/products/maduro And the Ethiopian is always good. https://www.doubleshotcoffee.com/collections/africa/products/ethiopia-yirgacheffe-bedhatu-jibicho The owner / roaster is pretty amazing at his art IMO....certainly for my palette. I tend to lean towards a medium roast vs a very dark roast. Cheers... HS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted March 1, 2020 Report Share Posted March 1, 2020 I'm still an Old BIsbee Roasters guy. They've never let me down and are on the more affordable side of small batch from my experience. They tend toward the darker side of roasting but have gotten a lot better about that than they used to be. I'd suggest their sampler to see how their tasting notes compare to how you taste coffee. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeymad Posted March 1, 2020 Report Share Posted March 1, 2020 And one more recommendation. This is from the place that we buy our green coffee beans. Bodhi Leaf Coffee Traders https://www.bodhileafcoffee.com/ They have lots of single origin and weekly specials. Their cupping notes are pretty accurate. https://www.bodhileafcoffee.com/collections/roasted-coffee https://www.bodhileafcoffee.com/collections/roasted-coffee/products/steve-favorites-roasted-sample-pack cheers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grawk Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 https://www.levercraft.com/decent-espresso-club This is a small coffee shop in Austin that is roasting far better coffee than I can. He’s hurting right now because he just bought a lot of really expensive Yemeni coffee. If you have it in your budget it’s a cup of a lifetime and would help a small shop survive the trump plague. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 ^my next coffee order will go to him. just got in a couple bags from Heart Roasters so not immediately, hopefully it will still be available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see the Yemeni, grawk. I just had a couple of pounds delivered on top of one I had already from DoubleShot, but I'd like to take a look at these folks as they are not too far from me.

n_maher Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 ^^ My guess is that to get to the Yemeni he's got to clear some of what he already has listed. It's spendy but I'll try to slide an order this guy's way, Dan. I'm nervous what the shipping is going to be for glass bottles of coffee beans. EDIT - in case anyone is curious, it's about $8 to ship 2 bottles (1lb). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 I think the Yemen is the very first single origin on the product page? https://www.levercraft.com/decent-espresso-club/single-origin-yemen-haraaz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 yup, first one. It's $8 for up to 4 bottles...that's what I ordered. The Kenyan is fucking fantastic too. I've had 6 lbs of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiSam Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 Nice find. I went to the website and could not find the Yemeni. Some other interesting coffee on there as well. HS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 If he’s still got it it was the first one listed. meanwhile IMG_0579.mov 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naamanf Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 Suggestions on a small grinder for doing just a couple cups? Manual is fine. I want to switch up the beans I'm drinking during the day and the larger hopper on my grinder makes it a pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
