... and this is not even the tenth time someone has asked me about this place. o)

i have NOT tried it, but am interested. i am concerned if the blend is robusta and arabica blended together; robusta beans are the ones that can tear your stomach up if you are sensitive. that said, it sounds like these kids are trying to make something work, and vaguely know what they are talking about. my vote, right now, is cautious optimism.

oh, and if this is a set up, send it to kevin, he's essentially a professional taster anyway.

So what Im reading is that we should buy a bag and have it drop shipped to the junkie for field testing.. once he is done he will send it to kev for further evaluation....

once certified as javatwins approved bean... then we send a bag to eddie?

Is that what I read?

just so you can't change your mind about needing coffee. o)

also, good to see you didn't get carried off yesterday, man!
One I mentioned it for him to Santa. Santa need not worry about me because I am not on his list.

Two, I didnt make it to Oz. The homestead is unharmed.

Three just wanted to mention you have yet to try this coffee.

Did you get the first batch of "street" beans (ethiopian) or the second batch (kenyan)?

and do you have a roaster?

Ive still got about a pound of the second batch left... and and headed back "over" in a couple of weeks.. I thought about going back to see the guy that had the ethiopian beans while I am there and picking up another couple of kilos..


while on the subject of street beans (sorry to thread jack)... anybody want some? I think I paid about $3 a pound for them the last time (Ill go check)... Im happy to bring some extras back if anyone is interested in them...

First Batch that Kevin Roasted. ;)

No and I don't have any interest and roasting either, But I'd be happy to grind some. :)

Now if this comes together I wouldn't mind picking up some of the finished product. :)
