Coffee Log

I recently got more into proper coffee making. Here’s where I keep track of what coffees or brew methods I find the most enjoyable.

Pulp Filter, Brazil

After the initial failed test with the Finca El Faldon, I visited a local roastery to get freshly roasted beans that outside of the freshness, should also cater to my preferred taste of fuller, chocolate-y and not so acidic coffee.

I picked up a 250g bag of Pulp Filter Brazilian beans. The result was miles better from the original test, with the same recipe.

Finca El Faldon, Colombia

After getting the Fellow Ode Brew grinder, I decided to just give it a try with coffee beans I already had around. The result wasn’t great, the beans were stale, ca month over the recommended use time. Result was a bland, uninteresting and way too acidic cup. Not surprising given the stale coffee, but it provided a low-bar benchmark that ideally should be greatly improved with a freshly roasted coffee.
