Holiday PIF! - CLOSED

[TobyC]

I'm in!

Colombia Inza Veredas

Big coffee cup.

 

[gvw755]

I'm definitely in! Although I'm a dark roast person, the Burundi Mutambu sounds real interesting. I have just started my search for a better coffee grinder.

 

[sskim3]

I'm in. I would love to try a combo of both!

 

[Lightcs1776]

Great PIF! I can almost smell the coffee from the description. Sadly, I am not in, as my coffee grinder has recently died and I won't likely purchase another one right away since the espresso maker dies a few months ago.

I'm in. I have been grinding beans for about a month and have not tried that many different beans. I'm looking into getting a french press soon. I would love to try the Colombian dark roast.

 

[TheVez2]

I'm so in! I'm just getting into coffee beyond the Keurig stage, as you might remember from reading my recent post.

I'm a fan of Dark roasts so I'm in for the Colombia Inza Veredas

I have a bean grinder, a stainless steel French press and a hot water kettle on my wish list!

 

[RedsFan75]

By the way, folks, I'll be sending WHOLE BEANS.

Only way to do it, the flavor of the bean deteriorates faster after it's ground.

 

[SamariJack]

I'm in - for the dark Columbian.

I'm looking to stock up on some nespresso pods this holiday season. Delicious and easy.

 

[oc_in_fw]

Thanks for PIFing, but not in. Were I in, I would go for the darker roast. I, one day, hope to have a decent espresso maker and grinder in the kitchen.

 

[jmattmiller]

I'm in! I'd prefer the Colombian. Colombian and Peruvian beans have always been my favorite. Admittedly the only experience I've had with African coffees wasn't especially great. When I worked at the roastery we only had one African coffee that came in green and blended from the co-op, and I always found it harsh despite the level of roast. I need to broaden my horizons though. Currently I'm in sore need of an independent coffee grinder. The one I use is built into the drip coffeemaker, which drops the beans straight into the basket. Sometimes it's a pain to collect the beans and move them to the percolator or espresso machine.

Thanks for your generosity, I am in! I would like to try the Columbian. I have a french press and a pot size pour through, I have an aeropress on my wishlist.

 

[kelbro]

In, Burundi, and a new Aeropress for the office.

Thanks!

 

[dangerousdon]

I'm in! There is nothing better than fresh roasted beans from a great source. I am quite intrigued by the Columbia Inza Veredas...though the Burundi Mutambu sounds delicious. Really either would be a treat. I currently am looking for a Chemex or another suitable pour over Coffee maker. Thanks Doak for this great opportunity!

 

[KeenDogg]

Not in, Doak, but you've got a great PIF going!

 

[Shave Jacket]

Ohhhh I'm def in! I love these coffee PIF's so thanks for the chance TexLaw! I'd happily take either but if I had to pick I'd pick the Burundi Mutambu.
On my cafe wish list is a cold brew coffee maker for work. At home I use a Jura Impressa J9 but some friends at work use a cold brew that they just leave in our friends and they claim it makes good bitter free coffee. I haven't done enough research yet to decide which one yet though.
Thanks !

I'm In!

I prefer Italian Roast but I believe the two being PIF would be best in medium roast. My friends tell me medium to light is better tasting cup but I was won over with the Italian and Vienna style cups when in Europe.

I broke my table top vacuum setup and need putting a replacement on my Christmas list

 

[JohnYaddy]

Definitely in! Medium roast, please.
I'm wishing (although it's not looking likely) for a new espresso machine. I have a Gaggia Color (similar to the Pure, but in red) that does ok, but I'd love to upgrade to a Rancilio Rocky (or better!)

Mis-type in my original post: I want a Rancilio Silvia machine. I have the Rocky grinder already. It's the week before finals, and I also have to finish up two twenty page papers--forgive my lapse please.

 

[Heckle]

I'm in. Medium roast works for me. I have a new french press on my list.

 

[OtherMoe]

I'm in please.

Burundi Mutambu Sounds fantastic

I have a Coffee Sock on my wish list for cold brew.

Fabulous PIF, thank you for the opportunity.

 

[Doug57]

I'm absolutely in! The Colombian would be my first choice, but both sound incredible. We're still using a blade grinder, so a burr grinder would be number one on the wish list. Great PIF!
