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

Hey guys, recently bought a cheap and cheerful Swan espresso machine from lidl. I bought the grinder but haven't the foggiest idea where to start coffee wise.

Can anybody recommend something strong to give a lad a good wake up in the morning. Now I would be adding a wee bit of foamy milk to the top of it. Have tried a COSTA pre grinded pack, a few of the Marley Coffee company beans but nothing really hitting the spot.

I am running Formation blend from cloudpicker right now - very good in milk based in my opinion.

Yep, exactly the same. I try others to mix it up but always go back

Thanks for the suggestions.

Went with the WCC, along with a bag of the Ugandan.

Both sound right up my street

Rule of the coffee forum: if you use a discount code that somebody posts or a tip, you need to report back on how the coffee was

anyone get the Imbibe email this month? The Ethiopian in particular sounds very intriguing

Have bought from their coffee club before and also just off the site and have been disappointed compared to cheaper beans from other roasters.
Kind of showed me that what the experts consider to be really good coffee may not be great for me

Yup I have no need for it at the moment with a couple kilos of beans in the freezer but they convinced me anyways with the tasting notes.

Yeah, I've been sucked in again. The early heads up email to build hype/interest is incredibly effective in marketing it to me!

Looking forward to trying both as I don't really drink Brazilian coffees so will be nice try something different.

The Ethiopian is our second microlot from The Worka Wuri mill. We've seen this coffee offered at €25 from some roasters around Europe. It's rare and it's premium but we're offering it at over 20% less. From what we can gather (the producers were very secretive), banana process is similar to natural anaerobic fermentation but with the addition of banana slices which add sweet flavours to the coffee. We think it's stunning.

Didn't really like the Coffee Angel one or the Art of Coffee Peruvian decaf, ut I'm using a clever dripper so they might be great for espresso. It seems tricky to find something where you don't get that bitterness. Maybe I just need to give in and use some milk and sugar :eek::eek:

Grand.

I only got a good bean order last week.

Need to get more AOC Smooth, so I'll likely get it from them next week. Cheers.

@Caviar, it'll be made into americanos or cappuccinos so should be okay.

Came across a small batch roastery from Donegal - Shack coffee
https://shackcoffee.ie/shop/

Free shipping over €50 or else €7 which is a bit steep!

Looks like they only do 250g bags with no discount for more than one. Very expensive. €37.80 for 1kg plus €7 shipping, ouch!

Will be heading to cloudpicker for a trip today - pick up a bag of something, tried HENRY and SAM so will see what else they have

Handy having their roastery up the road.

The MAM single origin is lovely for espresso machine too. I think it is used to blend both HENRY and SAM blends.

Just ordered some Coffee Angel Forsa Gala for a change.

Let me know what you think

Had the Cheeky Monkey this morning.

It was lovely I have to say.

Not as rich as AOC's Smooth which is the big daddy for me these days, but lovely all the same.

I got a bag of Arawyn's Dream as well. So will give that a whirl over the weekend.

Anyway, it's a thumbs up from me.

Sipping Cloudpicker Frinsa Estate since last week and it is a beautiful cup. Another fermentation experimental coffee and it is beautiful through the v60 and the wave. Like the Banka it has a lot of tea-like notes imo. Worth the €14 if you're into funky pour overs.

Been doing espresso mostly but literally just got a supply of chemex filters yesterday so will break that back out.

Might go back to pour over for a bit, or more likely run both - getting a lot of caffeine these days haha
