kenya smoothie
April 6, 2005 – 1:19 amkenya sublimity has returned. seriously.
in frustration at my hit-or-miss roasting results, i started a log. nerdy. yeah.
immediate results, though. some kenya aa karatina batches (auction lot 220) that are pulling espresso shots like banshee nectar. some folks have convinced me of the superiority of the good ol’ doubleshot (hey, whatever’s good for those perennial norwegian barista kings…). it’s hard, man. triple baskets and ristretto pulls? bhaaa! crutches, all. a sweet streak of 25-odd seconds’ exposure without overfilling is something amazing to behold and still amazinger to swill.
all that to say: the kenya is making it possible once again. one of the best. pull. streaks. ever.
now all i need is a camera, so i can show you…
don’t worry, i’ll be there soon with my camera…
Caribou is by far the best espresso. Who in their right mind would talk about espresso with such compulsion. I mean really, do you really need to devote so much of your life to an espresso machine when you could just go to Caribou.
Caribou Power!!!
hoo, boy. dare i respond to this?
Long Live The Caribou. The Caribou will strike again.
i get it. a flamer, eh?
clearly, ma’am-sir, you have not partaken of the sort of beverage discussed on this here blog.
i do, however, believe in tolerance for all peoples….
