Freshly roasted coffee beans online

The high horse brigade

My usual store to buy freshly roasted beans is 20 mins from my house and these days I go that direction less and less so I'm looking for an online supplier that will ship me beans roasted at least in the last 2 weeks. I go through a kg a month so a subscription would suit. Where do you recommend

It's my regular coffee, I find it easy to dial in with lots of crema. I need to make slight adjustments to the grind (grind setting 8 to 9 on my sage Pro) when the beans get slightly older (4 weeks +) as I've bought 2kg at a time the last 2 times I've bought (free shipping over €30) usually it takes me 3 weeks get through a kg. I find it's not nice and difficult to dial in on the first 5 days after roasting so usually let it sit and order well before I'm nearly out

Here's my morning Americano with fusion roasted 11th February

Anyone know if Bell Lane ship their subscriptions on a specific date? They say they ship 2 days but not sure about subscriptions. Last Badger & Dodo will ship next week so don't need anything just yet.

After getting Art of Coffee Smooth, Lounge and Fusion blends last month I have to say that I'm so blown away by them. Top quality stuff.

Perfect timing for me. Am looking to try something new.

The fusion blend I got I’m having trouble dialling in, 16g in and around 37g at around 30 seconds out which is not bad , but shot doesn’t start to pour till nearly 13-15 seconds, virtually no crema.

I’ve gone up n down coffee grinder dial...hmmm.

The Smooth blend in particular is exactly what I needed in this awful non-coffee shop available times.

Will be due to make another order this week so will grab a kilo of the Smooth and a couple of others. Fantastic stuff altogether.

I didn't see this post earlier, but coincidentally I've gone back to Art of Coffee this month and went for the Fusion and Lounge this time. Though it appears I should have went for the Smooooooth.

A bit like myself.

We have a single origin rotating subscription with Badger & Dodo for 1kg at €26 a month, that seems to be gone now and their new subscriptions are a fair bit more expensive and have shipping charges. The rotation now has micro lots included and is €34.65 a month plus shipping and Jam Jar/Blackwater are €27.83 plus shipping.

Any alternatives to keep the price down? I see Bell Lane is €27.50 so might just go with them.

That's a big jump by B&D alright..Was going to subscribe..but not now

Just started El Mirador from Coffee Angel in the interest of trying something else. Very interesting taste and a lingering aftertaste. I think I like it?

Its by far my favourite of their current coffee's.

I got a bag of it the other day, definitely got a bit of a spice note off of it, but not too overpowering. Really pleasant.

I'm really enjoying it, just had a cup. Definitely one for the regular rotation.

Has anyone ordered from Rave lately? I want to buy from them, but if I use addresspal, I’ll get hit with customs and other charges.

Anyone here have experience using a delonghi dedica?
Just wondering if anyone had advice on cheaper descaler and also single wall filters?

I've had one (EC680) in daily use for about four years, and I can't fault it.
You'll get descaler in Lidl / Aldi.
Never tried the single wall filters. Please post up if you manage to get one, I'd be interested.

Going to work my way through Cloud Picker for the next while.

10% of KG bags. Sure why not.

Think I'll give bean in dingle a whirl next on your recommendation here. The WFH package looks great!

Upside is a great shout by weepsie too - there are on the top tier of my still to try list! I keep getting tempted by discount offers from other roasters

Local cafe here in Limerick Fika uses them as one of their house blends and also sells the tins which look really well for 15 and then refill for a tenner, 9.50 directly from bean in Dingle I'm happy to give the local cafe the extra 50c.

Gotta give it to BiD they open a new cafe in Killarney and called it bean in Killarney 😁

Right so in the last year or so I've gone through the following roasters
Ponaire, Bell Lane, Ariosa, Ballies, WCC, Cloudpicker, Bean in Dingle love their coffee tin, dreambean.

Any suggestions on next stop will all be used for lattes off a esam machine?

The Velo Indian Ratnagiri Estate?
Coffee Angel is missing there too!!
Badger & Dodo is a must if you haven't tried them yet

it's like anything really, coffee is a proper rabbit hole of a hobby for some people.

Some people are happy to drink Maxw**l H**se, some people are happy to use pods, some people are happy to buy preground coffee, some people are happy to use blade grinders, some people buy a load of drip and immersion devices, some people spend a couple of grand on machinery.

The Gold Blend Brigade would probably say the same thing you've just said about people who use an aeropress instead of instant, for example

Yah its all relative !

Can anybody help me figure out l something. I generally use a bit of vanilla soya milk with my coffee, heat it up before adding coffee from my coffee machine (that grinds beans and makes the coffee.

For months I used the same coffee at the same settings (grind the beans the smallest for strong flavour. In the last few months I’ve branched out and been trying beans from Irish shops mentioned in these threads.

However it seems that for some reason when I’m adding the newer coffee to my milk it sometimes curdles up into small weird bits. This only happens generally with some of the new beans I’ve been trying. Can’t think of why. Should I be not grinding beans as small or is there some beans that have a reaction to certain milks?

I had this issue with oat milk and coffee made in the aeropress. Apparently it is to do with the coffee being too acidic.
