So as not to dissapoint all my avid readers (both of them ), the latest blend experiments.
A variation on the last one.
Roast 1:
250g Brazilian Cachoera (Hasbean).
Roasted 20s into 2nd crack. Once again there was little gap between the end of 1st and the start of 2nd, abouy 20s.
Roast 2:
100g Ugandan Bugisu (Sweet Marias)
100g Celebs/Sulawesi Torja (Hasbean)
50g Etheopian Yirgacheffe (Hasbean)
Roasted about 20s into 2nd crack. Interestingly, here, with a blend of beans, there was a well defined gap between the cracks, about 1 minute.
This is similar to my last blend, but the Celebes has replaced the Lintong for a subtler sweeter body, and the Yirg has replced the Harar to add a little more highlight acidity. I'm hoping the changes will give a slightly less hevy handed cup (not that I dislike the other one, quite the opposite), as I fancied something different.
3 days rest is up today, so I will be trying it later, and will report back.
