I've had a full french press of Unclebeanz Negrita (again) along with some nespresso made Ethopian Yirgacheffe. I'm going to turn into the great Cornholio soon.

Thanks to Duane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Oh well :sh

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

VERY NICE!
Brazil Bob-o-link, roasted 84 hours ago, excellent. I am so impressed with this coffee, I'm giving it a HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! A real crowd pleaser :tu

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Haha my thoughts too. Although I did enjoy many years of Caramel Fraps!!!

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

I think, their specialty drinks, can be okay. Honestly, I don't really know. But, as for real coffee :pu

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

New coffee! Guatemala Antigua El Inteligente Pulcal :cf1 Roasted 20 hours ago to scant FC, drip, Silk. Excellent cup!

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Exactly my thoughts. The regular coffee is terrible, even McDonalds is better. But they do make some good specialty stuff.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

How does one make good specialty stuff with the exact same beans/coffee if their regular stuff is crap?

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

The specialty stuff hides/masks the quality of the bean with other flavors.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Yup, load it up with sugar, flavors, foamed milk, whipped cream, and all that.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

I received some fresh roasted Unclebeanz Negrita roasted the week before Xmas.
Generally speaking, I find the fresh roasts to be not nearly full-bodied enough for my tastes.

However, this coffee is da bomb. Rich and full-bodied. Much more suited to my tastes. Props to Duane (forgop) for sending some my way.

Oh. I almost forgot. 95% of the time I drink my coffee black. No cream. No sugar. No nothin'.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

That is the only way I drink "Coffee". :tu

I had some from Duane, it makes a good espresso as well.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Thank you.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

Hey Peter, so it's probably not the "fresh roasts" that you are finding not nearly Full-Bodied enough. You just like a darker roast level. Probably upwards of Full City +. More like Vienna or French roast.
:cf1

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

You are probably right. But I have had darker roast levels that still seem light to me.

Thanks for the tip. I'll remember it when others are roasting for me.

Re: COFFEE: What are you drinking?
 

The roasted Negrita I got from Unclebeanz is a little lighter than anything I typically roast at home. That said, I did find it to be great stuff. I'll probably take it to FC+ the first batch I roast. I have 10# of green on hand and another 15# of Negrita and 5# of the Green Beso Espresso on the way. :D
