Re: Cupping for Milk based beverages
Call it what you will, I "cup" my coffee, be it helpful or not Michelle, not just taste and say "Shell be right mate, tastes like a goodn"...
I think the word "cupping" is thrown around a lot in many cases because it is considered to be an elitist term by several people who brandish it around at the drop of a hat when all they are doing is tasting. I always do my best to identify everything that is going on in the roast batches I complete here at home and if all Im doing is tasting to some of the fraternity, so be it; I dont really care to be very honest. Once again, all seems like a big storm in a coffee-cup to me...
I have just finished reading Innys article in Beanscene too by the way and for my money, what he says in there is spot-on from my perspective... 8-)
