    being the very lucky recipient of a coffee roaster :) I'm now on the lookout for green beans. I know discountcoffee.ie have a decent range but I was wondering are there any others? My machine came with a nice load of beans too so I'm far from stuck for a while but I'd like to know what's out there... if they're out there! First batch (Columbian) is fupping gorgeaus!:D

    even if they don't normally sell them I would imagine most roasteries would sell them to you if you asked directly. The place I used to work for did on a limited basis

    Thanks, Yeah I might approach a few... I'd get through at least 1kg in a month.... maybe more from now on!

    Coffeemojo (Wicklow) sell their single origin beans unroasted. Just hit the 'size' pull-down list on the single origin products to see the pricing of green beans. Generally around €17-€19/kg. Have only bought roasted beans from them and they've always been top notch.

    Maybe I've just been seeing cheap stuff but that seems very expensive for green beans. I'd expect closer to €10. Their roasted beans seems fairly pricey too.. but, if as you say, they're good then maybe worth a punt! Thanks.

    I haven’t roasted in a while but I was getting green from Bella barista. They delivered to Ireland and price was good
