Yes, me too. For a good Brazilian they're a good place to go. And if anyone wants to see a Versalab grinder in person, they have one in the roastery!redbone wrote:Liking the Medium and Medium-Dark roast (which is not really dark) roasts by http://www.carvalhocoffee.ca/ in Oakville Ontario.

Anyone can recommend something for Lattes ?
I feel that I'm wasting my money on good beens, 12oz bag for $17, and then I kill it with flavours, lots of milk.
What's out there that's still fresh roasted but much cheaper ?

Hi Martin, I've been enjoying Hale Coffee recently.

But if you want something inexpensive for Lattes, try the Daterra offerings from idrinkcoffee. They sell 1lb bags for $18. They are a line of high-quality Brazilian beans. Such as as Sweet Blue, which is also carried by Redbird in the U.S.

Recently I ordered Barzula from their website, someone recommended it on the forum in some post I read.
Couldn't dial it in at all, water was just flashing through it at a fast pace, I was getting 18g>45g in around 18sec with 10sec pre infusion
I dumped it to my father who drink drip coffee, and went back to Idrinkcoffee Detterra line and it was night and day difference

Barzula was the go to pre ground coffee used in moka pots in the GTA back in the 70's-90's.
I recall seeing it as a standard in all my Italian side of the family homes.
By today's offerings it's not really good considering mostly pre-ground and blended in the traditional way.
Meaning dark roasted and heavy use of Robusta in the blend.
Between order and chaos there is espresso.
Semper discens.

Maybe the better question is who hasn't had experience with them!
As an aside, it will test your skills pulling some of the coffees from those roasters on a Silvia - and you'll want to clamp down the Pharos as well .

do you mean the Pharos is not good enough for those coffees?

No, I mean that if the roast is very light then the beans will be very hard. Thus, much more effort will be needed to grind.
