Coffee Beans
« on: July 20, 2023, 07:48:06 am »
I'm running low on coffee at home. I'm not usually tasked with getting more but when I am I usually just hit up the same cafe not too far from home. The thought of being more proactive and ordering some beans online crossed my mind  :laugh:  Where do the users of waygook get their coffee beans? Any recommendations? I make drip coffee. Always willing to try something new.

Cheonan's finest. The guy wins Korean roaster of the year every year.

Direct trade with farmers, often gets batches of Cup of Excellence beans due to his connections.

Yeah, it's in Cheonan, but this guy is one of the country's leading experts on coffee, if not THE expert.

And if my thought-dreams could be seen
They’d probably put my head in a guillotine

Thank you. Going on vacation in a few days. But I'll be sure to order a bag when I get back.

I've been ordering from Rest Bean for while. Lots of choices, free delivery on 2×200g or 2x500g. And their prices are very reasonable. They roast every day.

Help others, especially animals. Say what you think, be considerate of others. Appreciate more than deprecate. Teach well, jump on teachable moments. Enjoy Korea as it is, without changing it. Dwell! Yet, at times, change your life for the better. "The most important [thing] is to have a good day."

I always get coffee in the morning. It's a good way to start a great day of teaching.

I'd like to try coffee with Rye sometime. It would be really interesting.

The first part is the genuine ad, but then they pretty seamlessly added a second part that was a piss take.
