I may have a problem. My gf said im not allowed to buy any more coffee but joke's on her: Swing's was out of Mocha Java so my order was incomplete.

(Also: Zekes does local delivery tuesdays and Fridays so i had an order sent to my hotel. On Friday as Im checking out i saw a package from Zekes that had two of the same bags and said theres no way someone else ordered what I did and sure enough they hadn't. Zekes sent me the same order.... the Haitian is too roasted. Haven't had the Honduras. The yirgacheffe is good. Rich choclatey blueberry.)

Reading between the lines I think your girlfriend hasn’t been wowed by your skill set as a barista. Therefore she is less pleased about the coffee on the shelf than the coffee in her cup.
A call to up your barista game

I showed her a few espresso machines at about 2k each and she balked at my suggestion she purchase them :butbut:

Hmm, grass is not a good note to find in a coffee: might be underroasted.

She knows it’s all about the grinder. Rookie mistake
She said no to an EG 1 and then I tried to compromise with a Lagom and she still said no.

like, what else can I do? I've negotiated a 50% decrease in value!
