Bean Recommendations?

Hey everyone, wanted to throw up another thread to talk bean and roaster recs. Wanted to try something new!

I just got a Brazilian Rose Diamond coffee from a local roaster. It’s super earthy and tea like with rose. Been loving it!

Home roasting tips?
  • Great article! Will definitely be checking that out. I’ve heard a lot of people turned off of home roasting by trying pan roasting the first time so I thought I’d jump in fully and save some money with green coffee.

  • Home roasting tips?
  • They have some great local roasters around me but I feel like all they do is medium-dark roasts that are way past Full City most of the time and I wanted a cheaper and more fun way to have coffee the way I like it

  • Home roasting tips?

    I’ve been thinking about getting into home roasting, anyone got any tips of first roasters and places to check out for green beans? I was thinking a SR800 with extension tube from sweet Maria’s and the green coffee there as well but love to hear other thoughts!

    can you recommend me anime to watch?
  • Nick just opened a whole studio devoted to making more series in the universe so maybe a good time to check them out. The first series is perfection and Korra has some amazing highs (and lows that aren’t really the series’ fault but the exec’s fault)

  • Is there anything actually useful or novel about "AI"?
  • This. ChatGPT strength is super specific answers of things or broad strokes. I use it for programming and I always use it for “how can I do XYZ” or “write me a function using X library to do Y with Z documentation”. It’s more useful for automating the busy work

  • Pour Over Recipes?

    What’s everyone’s pour over recipes? Chemex, Kalita, v69, anything! Would love to try something new.

    Thoughts on The Fugitive (1993)?

    I watched this movie last night and I absolutely loved it. Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones both killed it. The pacing was perfect and intense. It was all around an amazing film. I wondered why it didn’t win best picture that year until I saw who did win it.

    Any good computer vision research communities?

    I’m trying to find more communities to keep up with computer vision and photogrammetry research. I’d love to start some if there’s no any.

    Weekly Bean Recommendations

    Hey y’all, it’s time to recommend what beans you’ve been brewing with this!

    I’ve been brewing with tropical weather from Oynx (https://onyxcoffeelab.com/products/tropical-weather?variant=31862710173794). I’m not usually a blend guy but I’m really digging it. It’s sweet and tea like with a little fruit. It’s great stuff.

    Favorite bean designs?

    One of the best parts of a new roaster or bag of coffee is, to me, seeing new bag designs. What’s your favorite roaster designs and do they match the flavors well?

    Bean or brewing recommendations?

    I did a bean thread last well and had an amazing time so I wanted to try to make it a consistent thing so here’s another one! I expanded it to new brewing methods or tips anyone has tried.

    I’ve been doing Black Cat espresso (https://www.target.com/p/intelligentsia-direct-trade-black-cat-classic-espresso-roast-dark-roast-whole-bean-coffee-12oz/-/A-15354287) from intelligentsia and been pulling pretty good Moka pot shots with it.

    when a director breaks all of Pixar's rules...

    A great video essay about Brad Bird and his approach to animation as an art form. A great up and coming youtuber who's commentary I enjoy a lot.
