Thanks V12. How are those beans?

So lets say I buy a programmable grinder? An expobar. Will the doses need to change if I change beans or can i get the same amount (in grams) regardless of the beans or grind setting?

Rosetta in Woodstock Origin in Town EspressoLab at the biscuit mill.

What happened before this pic was taken? was it after a shot or straight after the back flushes?

I can't see the pic.

So I'm thinking of buying a super auto for the girlfriend to keep at her house. Not a nespresso. Any suggestions guys? I'd be willing to spend like 4k.

That is true, My favorite place in CT in Rosetta in woodstock. Pity I don;t live there though.

Have you been there?

Mugg & Bean? Vida?

Haven't tried them. I may in the future though.

There seems to be this mentality that as soon as a motorist sees a cyclist they immediately think "I need to pass ASAP". It's like cyclist = pass. Even when I'm going about 60km/h people STILL feel the need to pass. I notice this every day when I train in my area. I thought it was the JHB "rush" mentality but it seems it's not restricted to JHB>

Nope. Those contract type things scare me. Like Roast Republic too.

Cool, Well lets just say everyone PM me their order by 3pm and then I'll order and you guys can EFT it back to me? So we can get it next week sometime. Edit: Be very specific so that I don't order the wrong thing.

Should we go for it?

Yeah, perhaps. But consistency is key. One bad batch and you won't see me again. On a student budget it's too risky to waste money on empty promises. I've found they talk the talk but never deliver the goods. The service is brilliant, it's a pity that that's not what I'm there for. They have like a million different beans you can buy, from single origins to blends to their own blends. I wish they would choose like 3 beans and focus their energy on that specifically.

Cool, Just confirming Freshness.

I'll ask.

The guys from Cape Coffee Beans have offered free shipping if I order from them. Would anyone like to do a bundle? V12? http://capecoffeebeans.co.za/?gclid=CPLyjNDnkb0CFSMYwwodykoAVQ

I've had many a bad experience there. Just a bit of a lack in quality. So I avoid them now.

Edenvale And Aukland Park.

It's a bit more expensive and they aren't offering the Yirgacheffe I want. Don't you also think it will be fresher straight from the roaster?

Is anyone in JHB willing to get some beans from Rosetta Roastery in Cape Town? If we order 5kg or more shipping is free. Had some when I was down there.. It was GREAT!!! http://www.rosettaroastery.com/coffees.html

It's great. I've found that it's as good as you are. You'll have to be seriously good for it to limit you in any way.

Me.

People don't understand how offensive that is.. Was it not good enough in the first place??
