Yirgacheffe

Achieved Excellent with Yirgacheffe: same as before; 185f Water Temperature, and 2:25 brew time. A much more sweeter Dark Chocolate taste this time! A little too overpowering, towards the end of the cup, in fact. This is how it should be. Improv

Yirgacheffe on Inverted Method: increased grind size to 19, Water Temperature at 192f, Brew Time 2:00. Slight Improv compared to yesterday, I think - but as I finish drinking the cup I’d say it is Excellent (more of Dark Chocolate coming through) and is teetering on the edge of being perfect.

Trying Inverted Method for Yirgacheffe and increased Comandante grind dial to 18 (from 15^*), which lead to a more pronounced Aroma during grind incidentally – as well as increased the Brew Time from the usual 1:25 to 2:25 minutes (as well as used a Thermometer to measure Water Temperature at 185f) – and the taste is much more full flavoured than previous cups. This is an Improv, and I’ll try the inverted only going forward. Very Good taste, and and very close to Excellent cup … definitely in comparison to the last few days.

New coffee Yirgacheffe from Café Sobab. Dial 15, and pretty Good (has a bit of Dark Chocolate) if only slightly bitter.
