Hi Rita!
Thanks so much for sharing your parent's kind thoughts.I don't onto BarX nearly as much as I used to or should. Hope to meet you someday soon.
Cheers!

So I just sent you some great coffee in the mail. The costa rican was roasted for spro. The the shop here we are pulling everything on lm tripple baskets. We tried the CR yesterday at 198 and was lacking a lot. Today we are pulling it at 201 and it is amazing. We are updosing to aroun. 21 or 22 grams and 24- 25 seconds at about an ounce and a half. A lot of that is crema becuase we are pulling on bottomless pf. Good luck and enjoy! If you have any questions the number is on the bag.
we just got our coe nicaragua in. so we are going to roast that up in november and do the coe costa rica as so espresso i'll send you a lbs of both in about a week. let me know what you think.
Of course I don't mind, I intended for it to create conversation. Hopefully it will fuel discussion in some smaller cafes that may not even be aware that there is a difference between commodity and non-commodity coffee. I think the hardest part is creating these discussion without the pretension, but if we can create curiosity in the consumer then they will ask questions of us.
A side note, looking at your picture and reading that you were once with Alterra I'm going to have to say that we met once when I was in with Vick.
dang lady, your to nice. It was a pleasure and then some to have your company. You know where to go for a cup the next time you come through Chicago....
Hey Rita! I was looking up the address for Albina Press for next week - which local do you work at? Are ya'll hosting any shin-digs? Looking forward to seeing you again - maybe we'll even judge together this time. And I'm counting on it not being so frigidly cold.
