Re: Monthly BeanBay GREEN Bean Release - 12th Feb 2012

What time will you be at Fiefys?

The 1st Birthday celebrations are from 7pm till 9:30pm (although I expect maybe a little later than that too).

Fiefys Specialty Cafe,
45 Pirie Street
Adelaide

There will be Fiefys Organic @ Origin and Barista Blend in the grinder along with some very special single origins  - Mountain Top Estate and Yemen Bani Ismail... and best of all the cash register will be turned off.

Free freight and free coffee... life is good eh!

You dont need to bring anything but if you want to bring a plate of nibbles along Im sure it wont go to waste.

I really dont NEED more beans at the moment but this looks like an opportunity too good to miss - and the beans likewise! - esp that Rwandan. What time will you be at Fiefys?

** special note **

Fiefys Cafe turns 1 year old on the 17th Feb and Ill be heading over with the beans so that means that South Aussie CSrs will get free freight this month.

Monthly Green Bean BeanBay

Sunday 12th Feb 2012 
20:00 AEDT

Im pretty sure the overly complicated daylight savings timezones translate to:

8:00pm ACT, NSW, VIC, TAS
7:30pm SA
7:00pm QLD
6:30pm NT
5:00pm WA

The new beans that will appear in BeanBay at the above times are:


Rwanda Cyarumbo.
This coffee hails from Southern Rwanda and is clean and well processed.
It is a high grown coffee and quite dense, I found it took a fair amount of early heat in the roast to get it to ramp like I expected to 1st crack.  I found this best at CS10 where the cocoa shone through and the acidity was tame.  I would liken this to a soft Kenyan in style, great coffee as an espresso or in milk. $11/kg*


Ethiopia Limmu. 
Super clean and easy to roast.  At a CS8 roast depth its lively in the cup with a light body but a big citrus tang in the finish.  While it was nice at a CS9 and the body improved I think this coffee is a standout at the lighter roast depths and would work well for pourover, drip, plunger and a whole host of brewing methods. $10.50/kg*


Aceh Bitang Grade 1.
Wet hulled and loads of chaff even as a green bean this is easily one of the best Northern Indonesian coffees we have ever landed.  The body is huge, the coffee is fruity, spicy and plump and does this without the musty or dirty notes that can sometimes taint the wet hulled coffees. $13.50/kg*



_{* price per kilo packed in 2.5kg CoffeeSnobs cotton bags and includes the FairCrack $0.50/kg donation.}
