Break the rules and try this one at a vienna roast- it's delicious! Sure it was a mistake, but an enjoyable one- I really was trying to get the Full city roast that our mentor recomends so highly. In fact I don't think I've ever roasted a CR to vienna/french before, now I'm ordering some more so I can do it again! SJ |
I agree. I really enjoy La Minita at a Vienna roast too. Not to say I don't like the brightness of a Full City, but I like both. Now I shoot for the middle line and if I fall off the side I'm happy either way. I do enjoy putting the Vienna CR through my Giotto and making Americanos with it. Makes a great cup.

My favorite roast of La Minita is to stop it just when it gets a maple smell. Just after the start of second crack. Ive been enjoying El Legendario a little bit farther into second, but I think I will try it a bit darker tonight. Now that I know I'm not the only one whose nuts on this list. -Chuck the AV-Geek off to roast - singing the refrain to "Rawbean" in my head <Snip> |
OH! El Legendario as Full City (Full City is just before oil on the beans right?) makes a damn fine shot. A little nutty and really sweet. And its only 24 hrs old. I didn't have the patience to wait until tomorrow for my first cup. -Chuck the AV-Geek nummy nummy nummy |
