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

I am not really digging the art of coffee beans but I use a clever dripper so that may be the issue - the roast with the monsoon malabar was too dark for me. The indonesian is working our a good bit better, but still not the kind of thing I would rebuy but it's a personal flavour thing more than anything.

A new has cafe opened in the Cherry Tree Walkinstown serving a Colombian from Imbibe and I’m impressed, nice sweetness and apple kick to it . Might grab a bag when I run low at home. Free delivery for orders over 20 euro too which is good.

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?

For those mentioning buying from EU/UK are you paying over 40 a kilo? I checked out some of the better known roasters outside Ireland but with delivery it works out quite expensive. Is that what people are paying?

No. Last lot of 3 Kg worked out at €29.07 per kg including postage. The lot before that was €31.62

Where you get that?

I just ordered from Bean In Dingle, they have a work from home package, 4x250g bags of whatever of their blends for 40 delivered.

Most recently was from here: https://www.kaffeerösterei-hochschwarzwald.de/shop

They have a flat €5 delivery fee so if you ordered more than 3 Kg it would be even slightly cheaper. One of the three types I ordered was a bit long in the tooth re roast date, but tastes fine. The Pearl mountain is gorgeous, which is how I found them as I was trying to track down a source of it. It's the same as Ratnagiri Estate that Velo sell. I'll very likely order it again, but I'll ask about roast date beforehand, just in case.

The other place I regularly buy from is Mondo Del Café, which is in Luxembourg but a stones throw from Germany and seems more like it's German and some tax angle going on, but I digress: they have a wide variety to choose from. Even with a €13.7 delivery fee for up to 2.5 Kg, their bean price is low enough to make them economical. The beans are consistently good. Unfortunately you have to restrict an order to 2.25 kg as the packaging bumps it into the next postage price bracket. https://www.mondodelcaffe.de/produkt-kategorie/kaffees/

Anyone here have experience using a delonghi dedica?

Just wondering if anyone had advice on cheaper descaler and also single wall filters?

It's only an extra €1.90 shipping if you go over 2.5kgs, so not too bad if buying in larger quantities. Might give them a go for my next green bean order.
Ethiopian Yirgacheffe (green) for €13.30/kg (plus delivery is pretty good) - typically €20/kg elsewhere. Factoring in delivery, you can get 5kg of different green coffees for €15/kg (which is still about the same price/kg when buying 3kg green from CoffeeMojo).

I'm thinking of getting some green beans from them next order, to play with. I was thinking I'd try microwaving some a bit first and then pop them in a wok.

Krusty_Clown has posted about doing it and it doesn't sound like particularly hard work and a lot easier than some things I cook which can take hours.

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

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

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

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 😁

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.

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?

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.
