Generally, no they are not compatible. However, it is possible that there are certain brands where you can share porta filters.

As of next week, it will be on a Genio Pro.

I 100% agree with your here. I roast my Ethiopian and Tanzanian beans a medium most if the time. When I go a tad darker(medium +) on the Guji it brings out a distinct chocolate vanilla flavour. The Italian influence is everywhere, and the majority of coffee drinker believe that coffee is strong and bitter. The is such a misconception that darker coffee is stronger - dark roasted coffee has less caffeine than light roasts. Even my espresso blends don't contain any DARK roasts and I have only had positive feedback on them.

You should look at a Clever dripper as well. It works on the same principle as a french press - full immersion. Except you get zero bits in your coffee as it uses a filter paper. It has a pressure valve that only releases the coffee once you put it on top of your mug, so you can use it to make filter coffee as well. They retail for about R500 and clean even quicker than an aeropress.

Its a Peaberry Natural from the Guji Region in Ethiopia. It's scores an SCA86. It's beats any of the top end Yirgacheffes I have tasted.

Are you referring to the bean or roastery?

Whatsapp me on 084 645 8840 to order or if you would like my offering list. I am based in PE but we courier around SA. Courier is R50 or free for orders over R400. Our prices start at R185/kg. We are a lean operation which allows us to provide Specialty Beans at commodity bean prices.

I have just launched an Ethiopian Guji Peaberry. It scores a SCA 86. You will battle to find better quality at R230/kg. It is small batch roasted with intense flavour notes.

I was team BigMac, how do I collect my prize? Have had no contact from the competition organisers.

I'm new up here, staying in Brooklyn. I am keen for longer rides. Are there gravel roads nearby where we can do distance? So far I have only discovered Groenkloof and klapperkop which are more technical in nature.
