Great buy!
4 really small cups.
All the way full it fills my mug to about 3/4. It's my favorite cup of coffee though.

Thanks, really excited. I had to buy more vacuum containers to hold all of my coffee cachet.

Picked up these yesterday. One of them is on the way to our friend PE. :thumbup:

I gave the Death By Coffee a try around lunchtime and my hair started to grow. :eek: Then I did a full workout and 45 minutes on my bike trainer.
I'm still vibrating.
I did a 50/50 cut with that Kona blend in the picture and I'll try that one tomorrow.
Think I'll stick with the Sumatra for my afternoon cup. ;)

New Guinea. Most of the coffee on New Guinea is grown on small plantations of the mountainous eastern half of the island. Coffee cultivation started there in 1937 with coffee plants from the Jamaican Blue Mountain region, and large-scale commercial production began in the 1950’s. While not as full-bodied or earthy as coffee from Sumatra, New Guinea coffees are considered one of the most unique and flavorful coffees in the world. New Guinea coffee is very rich, with a low acidity and complex flavor and aroma.


Shiny happy beans.


The grind.


Results.

 
I told you this thread was a bad idea... ;)

Couldn't stand the fact I couldn't make a decent espresso at home so I went and bought a machine. Nothing big just one of those sub-$200 Italian jobs.
It does a decent job using the double filter for a single cup.

These were the beans. I threw in a bunch of odds and ends ergo the great oily colors.
I think I'll break out the straight up espresso blend and see if the crema gets a bit thicker.
Maybe I can stand another cup tonight. :eek:

I couldn't do another straight up espresso. Happy my new machine can do this.
Tasty!

Its nice to see the different beans together and realize how different they are.

Beautiful crema. Looks like your new toy is working out great.

This thread has me wired!:eek:
 
Thanks Ben!
Just got the Stumptown house blend and it makes a tasty brew. :)
Great aroma, flavors and thick crema.

The beans.

The grind. (Had to get a shot of the Lum large Chinese I'm carrying today ;))

The finished result. Nice crema. I'll try a finer grind later and compare the results. I'm pretty impressed with my inexpensive little espresso machine so far.

Cool beans! Your new toy makes your espresso look tasty.
I agree you might need a new grinder.

I got some new vacuum bags so I can store and ship in batches now.

I still have some beans left. Any BF's members want to try something new?
