Hey Andy, you still accepting old bean bags for re-use?

Yes please. Reuse is the best recycling! Bringing them to the pickup saves freight too.

One day we will workout a good method of collecting them around the rest of the country too... at the moment freight is the killer.

got some old gems in my draw i just found, they go right back to the ole hand stich days

Fatboy very nicely donated some classic ones to me recently, they are heading for a wall in the new Snobbery as an interesting "CoffeeSnobs timeline in cotton".

I gotta say, I cannot imagine hand stiching them all now!

Beans arrived this morning 9:30 thanks for the great service Andy,I have roasted 400gm Monsoon and 400gm Gambella a first time try of these for me

Nice! I'm sure you will have fun with both of those which are really at each end of the coffee spectrum and perfect for showing friends that it is never "just cooffee".

No idea on the plantation, they shipped with some other stock from PNG and were bought from broker on the ground. I assume they are from the Wahgi area as they shipped together but it's just a (good?) guess.

Sadly, coffees are like that often. Samples are great but the most information you can get is the country of origin.

Just as I was getting the hang of them, they've disappeared and run out. I should've bought 10kg instead of 2.5kg Are they coming back soon? Cheers, Rob (Sydney)

They sold out Rob Wink

You could have a crack at the Ganmbella instead....Different, but still very nice Wink

I am sure that Andy will get more Harrar at some point in the future when he thinks they're up to CS standard....

BTW and OT
saw this roaster in the lodge I was staying in.

True!
I don't read PM's, posting in a thread and hoping that I will see it is a rough shot and by far the best is to email me.

andy@ is always the best address, it gets read all over the place. All the other email addresses get read once a day at best.

The next BeanBay should be in the next week (we always try for mid-month)... I'm just waiting on something to land.
