Yeah it was great to catch up with everyone. I reckon as we progress the timing will sort itself out. Love the tea!

Re: December BeanBay

JavaB and another CS with the initials DP (I think) were not able to make it - Id recommend the head up there Monday Arvo for their beans - Im unlikely to be able to make it, the planning for the trip to Sydney will get in the way.

Re: December BeanBay

On a brighter note I can confirm that the beans arrived in Brisbane safe and sound for the first Brisbane Beanbay pickup for tomorrow  

See you all there.

Belinda

As a first time Beanbayer, I want to express my sincere appreciation to the Coffeesnobs mob, (including Belinda for allowing me to trample into her home at bang-on 11am to pick up my mountain of beans).

First roast just hours later and Im hooked. I pulled out my popcorn maker, a Black and Decker pinched from an ex-girlfriend in a breakup seven years ago (bonus).
Everything worked exactly as Ive read on these forums. Tried a sample of organic from the sample pack, first crack after about three minutes, and pulled it out at second crack, about 6:30 (my times are a bit scratchy because I was watching the beans instead of a clock).

My wife and her hairdryer (with diffuser) have been roped into the roasting effort, with improvements already (no more blowing beans across the deck with the hairdryer when cooling down.

Ill make sure I post some photos, but once again thank you for introducing me to a whole new world of coffee.

Re: December BeanBay

Corey mentioned today that one of the CSers still has not picked up their 4 bags of beans from Epic and hes a little worried someone may be missing out.

There should be contact details on the bags (well name and address at least)- might be worth giving him/her a ring.

Re: December BeanBay

From memory it was just initials - DP or PD I think.

Andy, any ideas?

Re: December BeanBay

I have just emailed DP.
He has paid for them already so I would expect that he will front soon enough.

Re: December BeanBay

Andy, a belated thanks for the Earl Grey tea.

We have been drinking it for a couple of weeks now and it is wonderful, love the depth of flavour.

Earl Grey is our nightly cuppa and this by far the best we have ever tasted, flavour is full and we love it.

Thanks,

Re: December BeanBay

Andy,
are we still able to order the starter pack? I was thinking of ordering one next week, but will wait if you are horrifiacally busy atm.
