Green Brazil Fazenda Cachoeira Bourbon
Green El Salvador Finca La Fany Bourbon
Green Ethiopian Yirgacheffe
Green Indian Monsoon Malabar
Green Guatemala El Bosque Amatitlan Bourbon
Green Celebes Toraja Kalosi

done a few roasts with the Hottop... my last blends were pre-blends...

40% Cach
40% La Fany
20% Yirg

into first few cracks of 2nd

40% Cach
20% Yirg
20% Kalosi
20% Guat....

same roast methods... however the Kalosi appears a tad lighter...

any suggestions on the above, either post blending or different mixes?

I'm trying to create a Co$ta/$tarbucks like blend...

mmmm is it more difficult to determine the 2nd crack if i were to post blend smaller amounts? ie 125g of a particular type...

Also does anyone pre-blend a week prior to roasting to help even things out... so i've heard...

Thanks Joe
Giuseppe
