Re: South American - a smooth, smooth brew......

What ratios in the various beans are you utilizing?

An update of the South American blend.... Improving very well. Day 6 and then 7 have been the best that it has drunk - markedly so. I have had to adjust the grind slightly both days but can not recommend this blend highly enough to others interested in a blend from this region. A really delicious espresso yet very nice in milk based coffee as well.

Hi all,
Have just blended the Brazilian (PN) to CS10, Colombian (VG) to CS8-9 & Peruvian (CdS) to CS9 in equal amounts. At day 4 the brew is strong enough to cut through the milk, is rich, smooth and not the slightest bit acidic. IMHO it is also great (best) as an espresso. The crema is dense and tight, not overly foamy or zesty. Sorry about the poor cupping description. I will play around with the ratios a little over the coming weeks but am extremely satisfied with this blend.

Anyone tried this one before?
