There are plenty of videos out there on how to do cupping - the mechanics of cupping.
This video starts you on tasting coffee in an easy-to-follow and easy-to-do manner. I sure wish that I had known to do this when I first started tasting coffee.
Hi, I am looking for some recommendations, would like to try new coffees. I am regular at Intelligentsia and George Howell. My favorite is Ethiopian and Kenya coffees, fruity and berry notes, single origin light roasts.
Tried recently Happy Mug Yirgacheffe which loved. I...
I've been struggling to find a decaf that is anywhere near as enjoyable as the caffeinated coffees I've been brewing since I got my machine near the beginning of the year. This is probably at least in part due to my palate...I very much do not enjoy darker roasts coffees and...
I just ordered some lovely Inker cappuccino cups from Canadian roaster/coffee supplier iDrinkCoffee. The box just arrived and, huzzah!, they included a free 340g bag of Gesha Natural Anaerobic Fermentation! (It retails for $70 on their site - spendy!). Question is, how am I best...

HOWEVER, I definitely can't handle the amount of caffeine. I'm...

Recently, I had two coffees Tim Wendelboe. Both were very good, maybe best coffee I have brewed. I want to get more but shipping was a lot - I used NHL. Nordic Post is about 1/3 the cost but I assume it takes longer. Anyone use it for a Wendelboe order to USA? How long did it...
