Seeking Sweet Coffee

[vinessence]

I have a new Silvia / Challenge grinder combination and everything is sweet except my need to add sugar. It may be laziness rather than snobiness, but I just dont like having to mess up my perfect crema. Can anyone recommend a commercial roast I could try either online or in Adelaide which is naturally sweet ?

Also, if I want sweeter tasting expresso coffee should I ask for it to be single or double roasted ?

A sweeter coffee i use is Costa Rica 3/4 roast. I will PM you where I get it from here in Adelaide. I still use a little sugar with it, but not much.

A local (for me) roaster sells some "New Guinea Blue Mountain" which is quite sweet- you notice the sweetness as soon as you smell it, and the coffee does seem to be sweet- although Im not sure how much taste is influenced by smell...

You could try getting hold of this bean, see how you like it.

I find a blend called Black Mountian from FNQ a nice sweet coffee. Roasted and shipped same day so it is fresh. PM me if you want the website or more info.

Try my Sunday Blend, very rich and caramel like it should fit your description
