Life is too short for bad coffee - The Off Topic thread

adrian522 · 2016-02-17 21:05:38

I thought we could do with a general chat thread around here, so this is going to be it! Came across this on the Guardian, A guide to Italian coffee: sugar is optional, Frappuccino does not exist I always thought too much sugar in Coffee and tea drinks in this part of the world. A guy in work puts more sugar in espresso…

Anyone else keep an "infinity" bag?
My usual dose for my clever dripper is about 23g, and I usually overshoot that when I'm weighing to account for grinder loss, so I'm left with less than 20g of beans in the bag once I've made 10 coffees.
About 6 months ago, I started saving these beans in a bag in the freezer, put the surplus beans in, give the bag a shake and then weigh out 23g for the next cup. It's become quite a nice blend over the months, and of course is different each time. I have beans from all over the world in there, and many different processes too, washed, natural, thermo shock, honey etc etc.
I find it a good way to use the leftover beans
