the Harrar is far less exciting as a straight shot. Keep it in a press, same with the Kenyan. The only reason I end up tasting it so often is we have a customer who swears it’s the ONLY way to drink his latte, well with vanilla and honey as well.

of course.

@ J

It’s funny you say that, I am planning to shoot some of the Harrar as an espresso and see what happens – I’ll keep you updated. In the press last night we definitely all tasted tomato soup in the Kenyan, haven’t tried it through the synesso yet though.

take that Kenya AA and stick ‘er through the portafilters…

…tomato soup I swear.

Guess I rolled into work too late that day, all the cupping elements sat there on the table in a disheveled mess.
