Hi all,
Well Im the proud recipient of my first ever lot of green beans (oh, the slippery slope....
) and Id appreciate any help on making the best of them. Not especially from a roasting point of view, plenty of info about on that, Im more looking for advice on blending or otherwise. I know absolutely *nothing* about blends, varieties, origins (other than the generic arabica/robusta stuff).
Ive got the current starter pack, so if anyone can offer suggestions on what (if any) blends I could try of these, and whether any such blends can be pre-blended prior to roasting etc Id be exceptionally grateful!
I generally drink/make a mixture of espressos and milk-based drinks, so something with a bit of body to cut through the milk would probably be the go. If it helps at all, St Alis Blend X rather appealed to me when I tried it a while back.
Feels strange and kinda exciting to be a complete newbie again at something coffee-related!
Cheers,
Dennis
