@piranha Just saw that you reside in Philadelphia. I mail order coffee on a regular basis from Old City Coffee in your home town. I think it’s up there with the best coffee I’ve ever had. Really fresh coffee.Check them out.

@Jett129
I'm drinking coffee now but I'm slightly nauseous from some bad sushi yesterday.  How far is Cranford from Philadelphia?  Just drive down and get some!

[Jett129]

It’s 75 miles,but if I order 5 pounds they ship for free and give me a 6th pound free as well. Have you ever tried their coffee?

[piranha]

No, I haven't but next time I'm in the neighborhood I'll check it out.

I’ve been drooling over that coffee maker for years. Make mostly Chemex and pour over these days,with an occasional French press.

This stuff is awesome

[Jett129]

Went to their site as I'm always looking for new/different coffee suppliers. Couldn't find out any info as to how dark they roast their beans. And just curious how are you brewing it. I do 90% of my brewing in a Chemex brewer.

[Matty123]

Hey bud. I use a Chemex set up or a French press. I’ve used a cheap drip machine as well. When I’m lazy, tired or too busy with my daughter! I’m curious about the roast as well. I’m sure they would get back
To you if u emailed them. Check out Imua coffee roaster as well. They are in Hawaii and roast great coffees

[Jett129]

When you look at the beans,how dark would you say they are,as compared to a French or Italian roast,which is very dark? Thanks for the quick response. Currently getting my coffee from Old City Coffee Roasters in Philadelphia. www.oldcitycoffee.com Currently really enjoying their 6 bean espresso blend.

[Matty123]

It’s on the lighter side I’d say. I’m a dark roast fan normally. By these are such flavorful coffees. So different from What I normally drink.

I love these guys: https://www.corvuscoffee.com

They source great beans and roast them gently. I really hate when beans are burned. So often it seems that great beans are sourced and then the roaster fumbles at the goal line by burning them.

I am especially a fan of their single origins. Some heat from East Africa in particular.

[Jett129]

Thanks,If you ever get up to Mystic,there's a wonderful coffee shop,called The Green Marble, that roast their own beans,and they do an Italian Roast Sumatra,and a French Roast Kenya that are among my all time favorites.

[Jett129]

I've been told that if beans are air roasted,and they aren't coming into contact with the hot metal of the roaster,as much or as often,they can be roasted to a higher temp/darker color without imparting the burnt taste that we don't really want. Can't vouch for the truth of this information. My current beans are dark roasted without the burnt taste.

[mclaincausey]

Kaladi Brothers here air roasts and they are glossy/oily, dark, and to my palate, overdone, but that's the only air roasted that I'm sure I've had. They have a good reputation among those who like darker coffee though.

[Jett129]

I've heard good things about them,but haven't tried as of yet. You in Colorado?

[mclaincausey]

Yep, Denver

Yep, Denver

Denver is great. Used to go there a few times a year to visit my buddies. They own Brothers BBQ. Grew up
With them here in CT. God I miss Denver. Breakfast burritos from Pete’s.

[mclaincausey]

Nice! I love it here. Do drop a note if you ever visit.
