Indeed, but a 1kg of beans lasts me nearly 2 months!;)

Plus, it's just me, I don't like any form of wastage, or foodstuffs lying around the house that aren't used, and taking up space. I don't do 'failed experiments'... It's rather like hi-fi equipment: if I've got it, it gets used or it's out the door. I'm no hoarder.

Not a bad idea, so will bear that in mind:)

Once I find those, I'll experiment and go off the beaten track more, to find the real gems:cool:

I'm also reluctant to make too many mistakes [stuff that doesn't deliver the right taste], and end up with jars full of coffee beans I'll never use...

I found my daily beans a while back. Then I changed my machine and my grinder and the search begins again....

Visually a disgrace. Taste wise bomb da.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...90dcdc74e1.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d4a4ffc4e0.jpg

How come coffee tastes much better on the continent and tea tastes worse:scratch::scratch:

Just a thought:):)

Grant that is almost Biba.

Bottomless version. After one swig.

Imagine typing something into an autocorrection parser that can do better than you intend.

Great texture to the colour. Like rippling paint
