Just for a laugh I thought of mixing half Tesco Columbian Supremo beans with half of those not so nice Aldi Alcafé beans - it's really good. In fact better than either on their own, which surprised me :)
I also think I'm done with Ethiopian coffee. I've now tired numerous types and prepared them different ways, but I just don't enjoy the taste.
i usually mix mine. i start by trying them on own then if they are not perfect for my taste they will get blended with something that has other attributes. often works very wellQuote:

Super
Tried mixing my beans again today (2 different origin Columbian beans), but this time it didn't work out so good. I stupidly changed the grind size too, so I'm not 100% sure if it's that or the combination :mental:
Here's my sample pack from North Star in Leeds. Very nicely presented as you can see - 10/10 for that! I really like the fact that they include some interesting notes on the producers of these single origin coffees.
Made a start on the Brazil this morning - doesn't have the inspiring complexity of the Rave coffee but very pleasant and easy drinking. My search for the perfect Brazilian coffee continues; looking forward to trying the Columbian and El Salvador coffee next.

Some thought has gone into that box for sure. I'm fully stocked for a little while with 1.5kg arriving next week from Coffee Compass, but I'll give that a go when my supply dwindles.

You can never buy something like this. You have to make it to experience it.
It is intense.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...842aa4e426.jpg
The same thing attempted again.
Yet very different.
Consistency can be hard to achieve:Dhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e4aefab837.jpg
Fabulous! And far better than that anaemic looking thing (all froth and no knickers) you were getting a hard-on about, and posted a pic of the other day....! :eyebrows:Quote:
