CaptainSatan Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 What kind of coffee beans are they? Arabica, Robusta, Klingon, etc? As we say in Ireland let's drink until the alcohol in our system destroys our liver and kills us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klingon These are single origin arabica beans chosen to be both from a historically accurate location and to brew the most flavorful cup given the intricacies of the fire roasting process.

LadyBrower Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 All I have to say is... WOW! I will be ordering some very shortly, but I'll be afraid to brew it. If you could pardon my ignorance, what is the best, most historically accurate way to brew coffee? With this coffee, i don't know if I could put it in my modern machine and feel OK with it. Cook and Seamstress to the Half Moon Marauders Lady Brower's Treasures, Clothing and other treasures Hell Hath No Fury like the Wrath of a Woman... No that's it. She doesn't need a reason. www.myspace.com/halfmoonmarauders www.myspace.com/faerienoodle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCholeBlack Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 what is the best, most historically accurate way to brew coffee? With this coffee, i don't know if I could put it in my modern machine and feel OK with it. Not unlike today, in the 17th & 18th centuries there was more than one "best" way to prepare true coffee. The two main forms, Infusion (extraction by steeping or soaking) or decoction (extraction by boiling) each have their benefits & drawbacks. At Black's Coffeehouse we choose to follow a decoction method first published in 1716, which continued in popularity well into the early 19th century. I've found this makes a superior pot, is easy to produce in large quantity and gives me an excuse to have all sorts of neat coffee production tools However, no one should feel badly about using these beans in what ever brewing method they prefer. They make an excellent cold brew, French press and one of the best cups from an espresso machine I've ever tasted. I've even had more than one visitor to the coffeehouse eat the beans like candy Chole "If part of the goods be plundered by a pirate the proprietor or shipmaster is not entitled to any contribution."

CrazyCholeBlack Posted July 19, 2009 Author Share Posted July 19, 2009 Oh... any chance these will be coming in chocolate covered any time soon. YUMMY. You can always chocolate cover them youselves. However, since confectionary chocolate wasn't around until well after my focus period, it's not something I, personally, will ever be making or selling. The current batch of beans is almost gone, grab it now or wait until I roast again in August!
