Mike, I already have an IR-3, but might be in the market for another. It'd be for back of house, so ugly is fine. How's it run? Does it have a profile automation unit or all manual? Floor model, yes? and last, where are you? tks.
Hi Mike just wondering have you sold the IR40 yet. We have one ourselves and have recently discovered that only 15 were ever built, we also have a 25k Gothot she's as old as me but I'd wager roasts a darn site better than me as well. Cheers Peter
Are you still looking to sell those roasters. I was laid off and have been looking for work for six months. I am falling behind in everything. I was thinking maybe since I love cooking cooffee perhaps I could sell it to someone. Please let me know. la.bussey@yahoo.com. I am not worried about how it looks just need it to work. Thank you.
I would reccomend a Baratza grinder (http://www.baratza.com/) instead of pre grinding. These are solid home grinders that can easily make the transition to a light commercial use decaf espresso grinder. You can get them from $150-450, but they i thi…
what i've found is that the problem isn't traditional drip brewing - it's the airpots. anything sitting for more than half an hour gets funky tasting. if i brew a 2.2 litre airpot of our colombian at 60g/l and taste it immediately, it's really nice.…
Almost forgot Organic Products Trading (optco) Smaller offerings but good people and they get some good coffees in.
I have also read great things about sustainable harvest but haven't ordered.
Getting a box of new samples from any of these places is…
For Sale: rebadged La Spaziale EP 1-Group small commercial/large prosumer espresso machine.
This beautiful semi-automatic espresso machine is about two years old and is in pristine condition inside and out. I purchased it from a fellow CG'er last…
I've got just enough regular decaf drinkers that I can't really eliminate it (as much as I'd love to, but these are the kind of customers that have been coming in for 16 years, so...). Yeah, I'm looking at the schematics now, and I'm thinking I can…
Atlas in Seattle. Craig is a q grade trainer and one of the more knowledgeable coffee guys I've met. Also Zephyr, (I deal with the Seattle office.) I haven't tried shrub but I like the concept.
keith pettigrew, an australian barista judge who trained me a bit in australia, told me to use espresso within 3 minutes of it being ground. that rule has never failed me. i dropped $1500 on an extra k-10 for decaf and it was worth every penny. to b…
excellent suggestions so far, i emailed the links to the roaster and we'll see what he thinks. this is the stuff i really dig - i'm never going to be able to taste every coffee but having specific information about the coffees i do taste helps so mu…
I have worked in a shop that did this, and even if you grind the decaf and take it straight to the machine, you still can't dial it in to pull decent shots. It would be better to have a cheaper lower volume grinder to dedicate to decaf if you are wo…
