This is my first BeanBay, so do we wait until notified through here that the beans have arrived at the pick up points.

big thank you for the 200g roasted...

No worries. We roasted and bagged a lot of 200g bags of beans for wicked sunday so any left afterwards have been randomly added to CS orders. The last of them were posted with todays beans.

Enjoy!

You should have asked for a free baggy of weeweepoopoo at fed square instead if you missed out on the Grace Villa

Time for some roasting tonight little wind and the sun is shining, a little Robusta in the dog bowl to blend with somthing else (havnt decided the somthing else yet)

Andy I would just like to give a big thank you for the 200g roasted Peru Grace I received with my green beans.
It was a real surprise for me when I opened the overnight bag and seen the little gift.
So once again thank you and it is much appreciated.

I would guess Chinese style from the origin... let me know after you try it.

Re: BeanBay monthly sale - Tuesday 10th March 2009

probably a bit off topic from the coffee but is the china sencha (S: a bit of a paradox) in the bean bay chinese style or japanese style green tea? the difference being one is roasted slightly and has a different taste.

any chance to also have a Bean Icon in the Event Calendaras to the Pick up

Not easily.

The gotcha is that currently we freight the coffee and leave it up to the pickup points to post in this thread the best/ most suitable time/place for the pickup to happen.... anything else requires a lot of extra coordination and work from all sides which we really try to avoid!

Ill have a think about what else might work but really, this thread seems to make the most sense.

Re: BeanBay monthly sale - Tuesday 10th March 2009

(beans should be at all the pickup points about the 28th of March)

The delivery date is a best guess as we are at the whim of couriers around the country.  When the beans arrive the pickup points will post in this thread to let you know details, times etc.

Andy... I know it is only a guide and variablkles (speelling mistake) do creep in... But any chance to also have a Bean Icon in the Event Calendar as to the Pick up...

Thanks

Re: BeanBay monthly sale - Tuesday 10th March 2009

Thanks Andy - roasted some today and they certainly roasted pretty evenly (and yes expanded quite nicely).

Re: BeanBay monthly sale - Tuesday 10th March 2009

revise my size estimate to medium

Yeah, I was talking about the roasted beans being large. They are graded as AA but I suspect might be A/AA

Greg and Rons beans look right. There are always some shells and parchment in these and the amount will vary between bags. While being a washed coffee it has not been washed enough to polish the beans so they still have a fair amount of chaff when roasting and seem to gain in body because of that too.

if they are as good as the other Tanzanian

We have them in our grinder at home now, great single origin espresso.
