a homemade roaster in the garage and about 70+ lbs of green coffee beans in the basement.
Ain't that the truth! I'm somewhere over 100lbs myself but I'm afraid to know what it actually is. Are you a member of the Green Coffee Cooperative?

You know we had an espresso blend. . . shame we couldn't keep it (didn't mesh with the milk) that featured yirgacheffe and a couple indonesian coffees. . . came out like lemony-butter coffee. . . just INCREDIBLE. . . and Jags who's to say you won't be able to try any sometime soon? :wink:

The first time I tried this Guatemalan blend my friend had I didn't like it but after a few more weeks I liked it after a while. I don't drink coffee any more though. Yerba mate FTW!

espresso is just a method of preparation. . . so any of the links that have been suggested so far will most likely have an espresso blend.

No. Not yet. I have a couple of connections that I use regularly now and they just started a bag split system. I haven't gotten into that yet either. I need to settle into an espresso blend and then I'll start buying again....

So far I've found that Stumptown's Hairbender is damn good and again,Intelligentsia Coffee & Tea does very well with their Black Cat blend. I've just started exploring the espresso blends myself. I'd much rather roast my own, but haven't had much success with the home blends I've tried.
