    It was a custom 50/50 blend of Ethiopia Yergacheffe Beloya Microlot 3 and Brasil Fazenda Cachoiera da Grama roasted by 49th Parallel. The shots made amazing cappuccinos. Super berry, caramel, a lot of jasmine, and vanilla.

    It is killer! I've been playing with different lengths of preinfusion, crazy times. I brought back bags of Herkimer (amazing), Victrola, Stumptown, and Zoka coffee from Seattle. Very caffeinated for sure.

    That sounds rough, I'm sorry! Are you working in Aberdeen or just from there? What's the coffee scene like there?

    Aug 16, 2009

  • Luis Zaman

    Oh man the coffee was pretty tasty, if you can get your Herkimer espresso out of the States, do it! Sucks about the first job... didn't want to work there anyway. How is the new place going? Hope that one works out man!

    I'm in a pretty coffee-centric city which is fun. There are lots of great shops and roasters over here. But you have castles over there. So it's a draw.

  • Bam

    The grass is always greener, I guess. Let's set up a roastery in a castle.
