What's your Favorite Bean? (Coffee)

[LowThudd]

Speaking of green beans, I found this deal on green Jamaican Blue Mountain 4lbs for $60. http://www.ebay.com/itm/370582072131?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

I have a penchant for Sumatran beans...

Anyone ever try Kopi Luwak(AKA Civet excrement coffee lol)?  Expensive stuff, but I have been hearing about it with curious ears for years. Probably best not to use the espresso machine for that.

I have  Went to a coffee brewing/tasting seminar 2 years ago and got to try it there. It is delicious, I just can't personally justify spending that kind of money. Legendee is simulated Kopi Luwak (basically treated in an enzyme bath to mimic the Civit's digestive fluids) that is damn close to the same taste but at a fraction of the price.

And hasn't come out the rear end of another animal...

faolan01- Thanks for the suggestion! I will have to give the simulated digested beans a try. As much as I like my cats, I don't care for the idea of scavanging their turds for coffee beans. lol

Despite the name, not felines. Cute though

[LowThudd]

Correct. Often described as a "Cat Like" animal though. And I still am not interested in the cute little buggers butt droppings. lol

You gotta wonder just how badly the discoverer of this type of coffee needed a caffine fix. lol

[faolan01]

Seriously. I mean, I admit to being an addict, but how bad was that guy's Monday morning to make him think "screw it, I'm roasting, grinding and boiling that weasel's turds!"

We shall see... ordered it up.

Thought my espresso machine had bit the dust today. Was spraying steam out from everywhere but the bottom of the filter basket. Took the shower screen off and cleaned it and the silicone gasket, and I am back to the rim with crema!

call me a Luddite, but the closest I will get to consuming ass-end product is ox tail

NAHHH...I'd call you an offal eater doing some nose to tail cooking/eating...when it goes beyond the tail....that is something else entirely unless it is an egg!

Egg= comes out of a chicken butt
