Big Daddy Wayne and the LFGSS coffee blend collective hit the link above to see more info about the machinery Im selling.

For Coffee Lovers Ill sell for 170 nuggets and Ill also throw in 600g of Green Organic Peruvian Beans from the Algerian Coffee Store and 20 Resealable Coffee Bags for your LFGSS espresso blends ;)

i want to flog my dualit grinder, if anyone is looking for one.

Why, is it shit?

Just saw a used italcrem grinder for £30 at coffee plant on portobello rd for sale. pick up only, be quick!

Looks like this

I had a cup of "Elephant Ear" coffee - at my local coffee establishment (Birmingham) - so called because of the way the bean grows. The Kenyan bean appears quite deformed from what i can gather, but it delvers a "dry" chocolatey aftertaste, that was delicious....

Anyone heard more of this rather rare bean?

anyone looking for a home roaster -

im selling a Behmor Home Roaster - as good as new - 150 GBP -

check out the testimonials: do your research its some serious machinery - and small- the size of a microwave and you can roast approx 400g per roast -

worried about the energy output? fear not the equivalent of running a kettle at the best of times.

We know you're selling it. It's already got a thread on here, in this thread and gumtree.

£50

You can now stop your spamming.

why is everybody selling home coffee roaster's all of a sudden? they must be shit

Sorry Pista, missed this a week ago.

You get 2 coffee beans per cherry, they sit in the middle of the flesh with the flat sides facing each other. Elephant ears, also known as shells, are a common deformity where one bean wraps itself around the other. Farms which are very dilligent with their sorting during processing will pick these out along with chipped, insect damaged and moldy beans, but they are still fit for consumption so are often collected together and sold as an elephant ear lot. This makes them rare, you would need to sort through many tons of cherry to get a full 60kg bag of ears.

The reason they are removed from the main lot is that they often do not roast evenly due to the thick main bit and the thin ear giving you a combo of under and over roasted in the same bean which gives it its distinctive flavour.

A similar freak is the peaberry, same deal as the elephant ear but what happens is you only get one bean in the cherry and it is fully round. These do roast nicely and can be quite desirable as a fully sorted peaberry lot.

Any of you folks want (or know someone that wants) a Gaggia Classic? Comes with the Rancilio Silvia wand fitted. Tamper, pitcher and 2 manual grinders also available.

Looking for £150 for the espresso machine on it's own, £200 for everything.

Why you selling it?

My boss might but not for a short while.

Why you selling it?

Haven't used it in weeks, after working in a coffee place all day I don't really have the need for it =P

And I need the money to help cover the deposit for my new place.

manual grinders you say, what kind?

One of these, a KyM, similar to a Zassenhaus:

And a pretty old metal one, apparently from the 20's, i'll get a pic later.

that looks nice, how much you want for it?

To be honest i'd rather sell everything together, if it comes to it i'll probably let it go for £20 or so.

Yeah that makes sense. For £20 or thereabouts I'm def interested though so let me know if you want to shift it solo

what's the tamper mick?
