Episode 67 on Monday the 22nd of February 2010 Malawi Msese Micro Lot Geisha

Looks like you’re upto something dodgy with a bong!

Thought the Nicaragua Santa Maura was interesting but can’t imagine drinking that one too often. Love the Malawi Msese in a filter amazing creamy aroma as it cools a bit.

Nice to see its not only our MPs that can travel first class on the trains when working…..

This was a good episode. I always like it when you showcase a brewing method and the inverted aeropress was good to see.

I was waiting for the comedy moment when you pressed really hard – but also the virgin cup withheld the pressure.

Coffee delivered to work and snowed in again today so will have to wait for the taste.

Can’t imagine what the guy who walked past must have thought of you talking to yourself whilst working a large syringe thing!

“popped a tweet out” My favorite phrase ever.

Loved this as an espresso. One of my favourites, lovely and creamy.
Listened to the audio on my ipod which worked really well.

I say dear Bloggers!!

Marvellous cupppa wot?
Thick and gooey, this dapper gent almost needed a knife to slice it.
One had a few flavours in mind which included Amaretto, pineapple (hurrah) and some sort of breakfast-cereal-wheat-type-thing-with-hot-milf (sorry, milk) thing going on.
All in all, a Ding Dong cuppa ol’ bean.

As an off topic observation, is it midgets or invisible people that travel on 1st class Virgin trains?

I’ve been rather busy and so I haven’t been keeping an eye on the videos. As a result I have lots of bags of green beans to roast. It will have to be a game of catch-up for a few weeks.

Starting with green beans and the iRoast2 I used one of my own programmed roasting curves ( 3mins 168ºC; 4mins 174ºC; 3mins 184ºC; 2mins 1180ºC; 2mins 192ºC) with 125g of the Malawi yesterday. Mains was approx 147v at the time. Actual temperature during roasting, as indicated by iRoast, lay between 209ºC and 221ºC.

Around 13 min 30 sec I stopped the roasting and took it from there into the 4 min cool down.

After leaving the roasted beans for 24 hours I made some coffee in my 1 pint Cona. My descriptive powers regarding taste are wanting but I felt that it was slightly acid yet full bodied with a complex after taste which lingered. Very pleasant cup. Another roasting success for a beginner. I would buy this coffee again.

No pineapple or apricot though and I couldn’t call it creamy. Further tasting tomorrow.

You are a brave one Mr. Leighton!!!!

I was expecting the Train Police to subdue you and throw you in handcuffs at any moment.

Now THAT would have been a good episode folks would be talking about for years.

Please don’t try this on an airplane. I enjoy these videos too much. Besides – I don’t think they will let you take your Probat to prison.

Keep em coming.

Clearly a man under pressure of time. When am I going ti have time to do the video this week? Oh well it will just have to be on the train!

My wife agrees with the pineapple and the creaminess. I still don’t get it. But it is a good cup of coffee.
