Quarterly Coffee Exchange No.2: Oct 2017

[defspace]

Let's shoot for a ship date of Monday 10/2. Roast on the weekend, ship on Monday.

Here's how it works:

If you're an active roaster:
Roast 1/2 lbs of whatever you've been enjoying recently.
Roast 1/2 lbs of the exchange bean.*
Pick a buddy and PM shipping info. Send along info re: varietal, roast date, origin, and roast level.
Post pics and some info on the roasting process before you ship. After you receive your beans, post some pics of the brewing process, describe the cup, etc... Let's get some discussion going.

If you're not an active roaster, but you want in on the fun, the cogs in my little skull are slowly turning. I think we can get some more folks in on the action. Stay tuned.

* From what I can tell, most of us are familiar with SweetMarias. Lets pick a bean we can order through them. It looks like their stock changes a bit over time, so let's wait until a bit closer to the date before we make that decision.

Jimmybagdoughnuts has better experience than me so I'm waiting to hear what he says.

For the record I exchanged with Jimmy last time and I picked first soooo I should go last.

Yikes. October happened quickly. I definitely dropped the ball on this one.

Who's in for this round of exchanges?

Hello nurse. I'm in.

[Jimmybagadonuts]

Im in, but I have to get an order with Maria first.

[gkk]

I'm in.

Here's Maria's latest e-flyer: Those Colombias you have been waiting for. Costa Rica, Brazil DP + Ethiopia Sidama Nansebo. Oh, & we are hiring.

...that Ethiopia Sidama sounds pretty versatile from the description.
