Recounting the Roasting

There are two coffees that have already dropped out of the drum and into the cooling tray tonight, both from Africa: Ethiopia Beloya Selection Eight and Kenya AA Nyeri Ndaro-ini. While both are noted for their fruited characters, they differ in precisely which types of fruits they each present. That said, they're also the types of coffees that aren't particularly known for their use in espresso, either as components of a blend or as single-origin offerings.

Naturally, I did the logical thing and roasted those two batches specifically for espresso.

The plan is to take them to Seattle with us. With all of the geeking-out we'll do, my hope is that we'll be able to get those pulled.

Who knows...they may even be delicious.
