Re: BeanBay GREEN sale - MONDAY 3rd May 2010

All went well - thanks Andy.

My first attempt at being on time for beanbay - just like a piranha frenzy only kidding!

Got Cuban and Kenyan. Ive already got some Aussie (home-grown from my in-laws in Botany - its a real stone-fruit bomb!).

I remember Beanbay going quicker than that a few years back  

Still, I got what I was after... I just wish Beanbay wasnt so tempting  :, I may not be able to afford to eat this week, but at least Ill have my fresh coffee ;D

Top job once again Andy (and crew), you spoil us snobs!

Re: BeanBay GREEN sale - MONDAY 3rd May 2010

Piranha frenzy indeed but yes, we have had some much faster.

The good news for those that missed this mirolot of MTC is that we will have the second one (pulped natural) next month. The farm is a finite size and this coffee is a very small percentage of a very small growing area so what we get is what we get depending on annual crop quality and quantity. We are still spoilt to access this much though.

Glad most everyone is happy and got some beans, Im going to go and grab some dinner now.

I can tell those who got some MTE it smells incredibly fruity as a green bean(I had a sniff when I dropped in to Snobbery 2 last week)

Thanks Krusty, I had some Waghi delivered today but couldnt resist the Oz beans 8-) [glad I was able to score a couple of kilos]. My ute smelled wonderful with the aroma of the PNG greens when I got in it tonight So Im certainly looking forward to a delivery later in the week.

Logged into BeanBay too late to score a bag of MTE for myself. W-ell its a bit of a blessing really - I really need to reduce my stash and I still have some great beans left - eg a bag of Yemen that I wont crack until Im convinced I can roast it well.

Well, missed out on the Cuban, :-[ :-[ too busy knocking out bricks to put in the USB.

Re: BeanBay GREEN sale - MONDAY 3rd May 2010

Completely forgot about beanbay last night, made tea late then got sidetracked, no beans to be found today at all from the new lots

Snoozed and I lost badly

All the more reasons to reduce the stash in the cupboard and make the other half happy, dont want to lose my full shelf of bean storage though, as space in our ktichen gets taken quickly if its there

What a great selection, some more Aussie beans coming across the ditch, cheers Andy and team.

Re: BeanBay GREEN sale - MONDAY 3rd May 2010

andy, out of curiosity, what kind of quantity of beans does the greenbay move a month?

Re: BeanBay GREEN sale - MONDAY 3rd May 2010

Dagnabit!

Moving house this weekend kept me busy and without internet access... until now. No Kenya left, no no Aussie MTE.

Great choice Andy, its really getting hard to justify buying so much green coffee - just because wont cut it for too much longer!

Didnt receive a notification this month, have I fallen off the "friends of" mailing list, or into one of the internets (many) black holes?  [smiley=huh.gif]

Hi Andy, great service as usual, less than 36 hours from order to delivery via snail mail

Re: BeanBay GREEN sale - MONDAY 3rd May 2010

into one of the internets (many) black holes?

We sent 11,000 emails (in fact, more than that because some people got two).

Check your spam filter, your isps spam filter, the address in your forum profile etc etc etc.

We get 100s of "out of office" and other email bounces so it might be that too.

We also twitter the sale each month and that also appears on our toolbar that you can load into your web browser. http://coffeesnobs.ourtoolbar.com

...also we repost the email in this BeanBay-banter section for those that miss all the above methods.

I cannot take credit for that one Coffee Mum... Paula shipped beans out for me yesterday as I was still in Sydney but Ill be sure to let her know the service was great.

Sho nuff, an over enthusiastic filter at the gmail account was the culprit. Ill be sure to check there first in future. Actually received two notifications  

Reminds me of one of those "blonde" jokes :

"Two blondes walk into a bar.....youd think one of them would have seen it"
I get two notices and dont "get" either of them... :
