WAKE UP AND COFFEE

From my other halves (better) , farm (finca) in Columbia. It can be ordered in USA and South America. It's good.

Level up
Looking forward to dial in the Ethiopian I treated myself with after we attended a barista course on Sunday at a local specialty coffee shop here in Munich. This bean was one of 5 „training beans“ and it was the one I loved the most. Fruity, but not too acidic and very well balanced!

Ok…here's one for you.
I just pulled the best tasting shot yet and am very happy with the results, but...
between the two cups the volume of liquid was not equal. Is that because: I didn't have an equal tamp and the water went the path of least resistance. The puck had no channeling and looked even, so I'm perplexed.
Is this just one of those things that happens?

Different pre-infusion time? Different pressure? The first and the second shot are always different with me as well… the second is better.

Totally normal. A few variables have changed between the shots. You can lessen the difference. Always run an empty shot through the basket in the morning. Warms up the whole system and the basket. Also moistens basket. Will make your first shot better and more similar to the second.
Anybody roasting here? I have been home roasting for 2 decades and nothing has improved quality as much. Rather use home roasted beans with a crappy machine than purchased beans (few exemptions of good roasters for 5x the cost) with a technivorm.

Thank you! They were good and Laura loves it…for once I'm not in trouble
My wife always gets the first shot… in her Latte Macchiato

Of course
Anybody roasting here?
Nope, I already have a job…

That mugs pretty badass.
Yeah, was a birthday gift from @Olly
They are a cool roaster in Hackney (where we live in London), who love Harleys and have a decent sense of humour. You may or may not see some collab stuff coming down the pipeline. The copy on their coffee is usually excellent, I'll stick a pack in your next order.
One of my fave recents ones…
