View topic - Sumatra Mandheling DP-SUPER PREP: - Coffee Forum (#)
„They have a healthy dose of pungent spice, tarry astringency, and a touch of earth; but they also have a nip of brightness to balance the cup, butterscotch roast tastes, and an unmistakable fruitiness that ties the bright end of the cup together. Actually, I am describing a specific coffee that I am now enjoying: the Sumatra Mandheling DP (dry-process) Super Prep. It's a smaller bean size than the Iskandar, but every bit as perfect with dark opalescent color. The flavors on the palate are excellent and you can really roast this quite light if you like (I do): the coffee will look unattractive and mottled in color if you stop it short of any sign of 2nd crack, but rest it 24 hours and enjoy ALL the true complexity of flavors in a Sumatra!“

„Organic Cafe Nica, French Roast maintains the lively acidity & spicy fruitiness of our Nicaraguan coffee in a darker roast. Our trading partners use fair trade earnings to build schools and health care centers in the Segovias region of northern Nicaragua .“

„Brew: Deep brown with slightly sharp aroma finish. Smooth, with sharp aroma of dark roast but no bitterness. It’s as smooth as the roasters claim: unlike most French Roasts, I can drink a whole pot of this, non-stop, without ODing on the dark roast quality.“

„Either they don't offer enough control of the roast, are too expensive, or just don't allow the roaster (uh, the person that is) to express themselves. The homemade or seriously modified commercial roasters on this page are alternately amusing and intimidating in appearance, but whatever the case, they probably work very well. And if they don't, you can bet they will be reconfigured endlessly until they do by their respective owners. A disclaimer on behalf of every roaster on this page: modifying electric and gas roasting equipment is dangerous.“

„Just in case you felt you needed more coffee machinery around your kitchen. Home coffee roasting is actually pretty easy, and takes hardly any time at all. Though it's possible to roast your coffee beans in the oven, in a frying pan or even a popcorn popper , having a proper roaster may be handy for the roasting novice.“

„The target for roasting success is much narrower than with medium or moderately dark roasts. Plus, roasters need to be very disciplined about roast color, and gauge it either by cupping or by machine reading with an Agtron color reader. It is very, very difficult for the human eye to distinguish between beans brought to an M-Basic Agtron reading of 30 and those brought to a 18, even though the difference in how the two taste will be dramatic. Done right, the 30 has the potential to be roasty tasting but full-bodied, sweet and complex, whereas the 18 will end up a bit thin in body and anonymously burned in flavor no matter how well the roast is managed.“
