As we often do, we stopped at T.S. Smith on the way home from the beach, and these bags were pretty fresh, so I couldn’t resist buying one. Since I already had a bunch of coffee, I put all of this in the freezer and brewed my first cup exactly a month after I bought the bag. The first cup at grind 4 and 99°C water tasted a little over-extracted, so I backed off to 4+2 and 95°C, and have brewed 2 or 3 good cups at those settings. It will be interesting to see how the rest of the bag goes, and compare it with my notes for Amity Brazil Daterra, another medium roast that I had some trouble dialing in last summer.
