Lets talk about COFFEE

[edinatlanta]

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

Have you ever given some thought of dumping her to find a richer gf?

She knows it’s all about the grinder. Rookie mistake

"almost overwhelming blueberry sweetness"
No such thing
Gonna snag me some right now!

What did you think of it? I am on my third bag now. I love these beans.

Love it! What was most surprising was the unmistakable smell of grass. Super interesting! But I love the blueberry sweetness.

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

Right. To be more clear, I don't mean the kind that grows in your lawn. I mean the other kind 😊

Haha yes indeed, it really does. I make it in the office and have received more than a few double takes.

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!

Exactly! The look of suspicion on my wife's face when she walked into the kitchen the first time I made it
