the final home roast taste test today. . .

i was given some whole-bean home-roast kona, which i ground up for press pot and then made this morning for my office colleagues. as long-time readers know, they love illy in the morning. but today i tried my acquaintance's coffee. his kona makes a very nice press pot. and my colleagues noticed. this morning they took pains to remark how good this was.

so let's count this as a home-roast coffee success story. to repay the favor, i had green-bean supplier sweet maria's send him some rare puerto rican yauco and an aged sumatran, along with a surprise. this was great for me, as i knew almost nothing about the yauco and so got some education myself! thanks, maria of sweet maria's!
