James Hoffman Feed- A Friday Afternoon Experiment September 3, 2010Recently we’ve been talking about replacing the temperature probe on the roaster. The discussion came up about probe placement, and where would be best. Our UG-15 is something of a difficult roaster in this respect, because the fins on the drum pass very close to the front wall meaning you can’t get a probe very [...] […]James Hoffmann
- Tradition September 3, 2010I’m a little conflicted when it comes to the idea of tradition. I firmly believe that an understanding of the past, especially its mistakes, is crucial to understanding the present and composing a reasonable guess at the future.

It took a while to get them posted to the new image gallery. I know, I know, Tom has taken more trips since this one, namely two trips [...] […]Thompson
- Three new coffees and one tea (tea!?!) September 3, 2010Today we see the return of a number of favorite coffees: the Tanzania Mbinga Ruvuma Flatbean is a classic Tanzania, with acidity more muted than a Kenya, but with intense and rather creamy body. The Sumatra Blue Batak Tarbarita is a bit brighter and more lively than most Sumatras, but with the thick body, molasses [...] […]Thompson
