Freshly roasted coffee beans online

Yeah, freezing works ok. The important thing to do is to avoid getting moisture in the bag. If the bags are still unopened, you should be good. Otherwise, I'd put the entire coffee bag in a freezer bag and then freeze it. If you have a vacuum sealer, even better.

Got a nice selection from Coffee Angel (250g Christmas half price and triple pack of 100gs )and a Timemore C2 grinder from Bear .Had a quick sample when I came in from work .Even smelling the grinds drew a defloral style sigh and as for the taste ...!

I start the day with flat whites Mon-Fri and generally stick to Sam (Cloud Picker). Maybe a little boring for some but I just want something that I can put together reliably when half asleep at 6:00am and this coffee blend does the job really well.

I save the fancy filter stuff for the weekends :)

Spent 25+years only drinking milky coffees, ever since i got me a delongi and started to taste the varieties of coffee - mostly the cheaper end of things, but its fairly freshly roasted so that s a plus - Now I only drink americano black or sometimes with a dash of milk,

I might only make a latte once a month.

I know this is not answering your question but i thought i would throw it out there

I drink flat white or cappuccino 2-3 times per week, but americano 12-15 times.

i think a single origin (expensive) bean, is not only a waste of money, (for milky coffee) but does not taste as good as a cheaper blended bean in a milk coffee.

Ponaire's European Blend is not a bad choice for flat whites or cappuccinos. https://www.ponaire.ie/product/european-blend/

God that analogy brings it home....the horror!

I really enjoy espresso, I'm just drinking flat whites at the moment.

I think I'm slightly worried about getting hooked on coffee. To borrow ypur analogy, having the milky version feels like pints rather than shorts!

Americano definitely better way to enjoy coffee .Diluting espresso shots with water rather than milk.

Try making an espresso and add a small amount of cream, rather than milk.

I'll do that, sounds like it could be delicious, thanks.

I have tried the Su Nollag and the Forsa Gala also americanos in a B2C and I find them both delicious, but I did have to set the grind to a low setting, lower than for many of the previous beans placed in the machine.

Sorry to be so cheeky, but is your machine clean. I had a water cup a few weeks ago on a different bean and I managed to dislodge afterwards a lump of grinds blocking the chute from the beans grinder to the infuser. Seemed to be blocking the full extents of grinds getting to the infuser.

Yeah, I'm coming to the end of my Su Beatha and Pog Mhilis, both were solid enough in the Clever and Aeropress.

I bought them because they were half price and I was ordering a Clever from CA anyway, and because my Square Mile order had gotten lost.

I'll say this, they are better than supermarket beans, but can't hold a candle to the Square Mile single origin stuff, which is to be expected.

They put a best before date rather than a roasted date.
