Light Roast Espresso
Light roast = higher % of desired solubles Dark roast = lower % of desired solubles At the same time… Light roast is overall less soluble Dark roast is overall more soluble Do you see the tension here? Putting light roasts on espresso can be tricky- but very tasty. Any questions???

@Nich Roald that’s the idea! 😀👍🏻 It’s easy with some coffees - others, not so easy lol But tasty when you get it right 💪🏻

@Nam Lam both good options! It comes down to which coffee you’re brewing at that point… And most of the time one change at a time works. Higher temp could do the trick without needing to find up the grind. Or vice versa. 🙌🏻
A little roasting.
Spend some time this week profiling new coffees for a client… Fresh crop Peru and Ethiopia. No two coffees are the same and it’s always interesting profiling coffees for someone else. But it’s fun to be challenged and finding the right way to fit someone else’s style.

@Nam Lam Do you know what machine the coffees were roasted on? We're finding some coronations between convection roasts and high brow temperatures. I try to lock in espresso as much as possible! Because the environment is so isolated, small changes in temperature have such a massive effect. Currently brewing 93.5

@Nam Lam yes! We’ve been comparing profiles I’ve done recently on Loring & Probat. Drastically different results - very interesting 👍🏻😎
Recording next course Thursday!
“Building Recipes” will be ready by the start of September - Taking each variable and using it to build an effective recipe. We’ll be recording at HipHop and there will be some dope graphs! 😂 I love a good graph.
