Jules72 Old-Dutch so have been using these beans the last few days… initially I thought they tasted really weird and was disappointed… but left them in my machine last few days and that now seems to have done the trick - pretty good… guess the beans were too young with them having been roasted just a few days previously.
Old-Dutch Yes mate, best to leave them to rest for a week before using them. Just finished my chocolate point and onto the Black Cat Signature blend which is lovely too
Old-Dutch Just cracked open a kilo bag of this - absolutely beautiful. My wife’s favourite of everything we’ve tried so far. Apparently they’re down to the last few week’s supply and won’t be doing it again sadly. Gonna get another kilo in and stick it in the freezer. Expensive but so good. The discount code and free delivery is a touch though. Can definitely get the almond taste coming through. Not a strong intense coffee so maybe not your thing if you love a strong coffee flavour. https://www.blackcatcoffee.co.uk/collections/single-origin/products/costa-rica-las-palomas-natural?variant=31974997721155
Jules72 Old-Dutch haha didn’t mean it like that… I generally go for the more chocolatey beans - never really like fruity beans that much. Also find that I prefer blends than single origin …no idea why
Dubman Jules72 I generally go for the more chocolatey beans I’m halfway through those mediterranean mocha beans from Coffee Compass and they are very chocolatey. They are my fav bean for their so far.
Smallman1 What’s a good brand of ground coffee? One that you can buy in a hight street supermarket…
baggers44 Origin Coffee . Cornwall - never lets me down - lovely stuff https://www.origincoffee.co.uk
Mad_Cyril Smallman1 Thread title is Coffee Mail Order SM1, easy mistake to make. Suspect Coffee Male Order would be more up your street?
baggers44 Smallman1 Ah right dear boy. Well when I get back up north my mum swears by Taylors of Harrogate Italian Grade 4 ground which if it is prepared properly tastes fantastic. https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/products/taylors-of-harrogate-rich-italian-ground-coffee/016410-7850-7851
