Hasbean roasts pretty light too. Darker roasts really don't happen much in speciality coffee because it kind of defeats the object, but there are some roasters that seem to roast a little less lightly, like Monmouth, Climpson, Volcano, Dark Fluid, Coleman, probably a bunch more. Generally though if you want dark roasts I'd avoid anything speciality/"third-wave" etc and stick to traditional stuff.

(Please tell me it doesn't involve coffee)

I'd sooner book a weekend in Southend than stick a slice of orange in my aeropress.

She's been active on Instagram for the last few days...

What you gonna get?

Do you know what variety it is? (I can't help, just interested).

^^Yes!!!! Absolutely killer album.

So much stuff is rushing back to my memory! Kindred, Reveal, Culture, Driven, Arkangel, Spirit of Youth, Birthright, Poison The Well first EP... fuck. I remember getting all this stuff from paper distro lists as an excited teenager.

I like that you went to the effort of creating that but couldn't fully type "something"

Haha I saw that too

Did the artist ever claim it was a spider?

Nice little summary of the recipes/techniques from previous Aeropress championships:
What is the best way to brew Aeropress coffee?

It just sounds like the polar opposite of what I want from coffee.

Ask your friend what his dad likes? He might not even drink!

Been following HBNielsen on Instagram, really like a lot of his stuff, doesn't seem to be passing through London anytime soon. Got a couple of black pieces on my arm so I want to get a few more bits.

Tempted to book in with Barbe Rousse when he's in London.

What kind of style tattoos do people think will age really well? I see a lot of stuff that I love but I worry it'll look "so 2014" in ten years' time. I don't see many from the 90s that look great, for example. If I got a tattoo when I was 18 it probably would've been a tribal.

I can't tell if all this trad/flash stuff (and I like a lot of it) is going to look like "oh you were a hipster in the 2010s". Or will it just look like nice tattoos.

^^^^That is surely going to look sick forever

The fizziness from the head adds to the aromas - words like 'bouquet' etc

Smashing back Square Mile's Reko Yirga like Ribena. This and the El Mirador are just stunning coffees. It's hard to check out other stuff when one roaster is kicking out endless bangers like this.

I don't get it, is Jeez arguing with himself about instant coffee?

quantity is absolutely essential when it comes to coffee, and quantity can only be maximised by not going for a top quality strong coffee (due to strength and money)

I just cannot glean any sense from this. It's the kind of thing I might come up with if I clumsily clattered into a thread about a subject I know nothing about and was forced at gunpoint to type a few thoughts.

I wouldn't normally rise to this stuff but I feel like there's something worth discussing somewhere, if I could only grasp what it is.

Best thing I've learnt from this is that Nescafé is underrated.

Hope it gets the recognition it deserves soon!!

Just don't expect automatic amazing coffee, have a play with different recipes/methods. It's a good one to move to from French press though, if you do it inverted it's 'full immersion' and if you get it good it'll be like the best you've done in the French press but cleaner. Also easier to wash up.

Coffee app brings up Four Corners and Scootercaffe, both on Lower Marsh. Not been to either I'm afraid.

seven quid for a chicken 'wrap' served out of a converted caravan can fucking >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Yeah fuck that, sounds dreadful. I usually get a breakfast sandwich, bunch of veg/eggs, then take some ridiculous cake home and make my own coffee to have with it. Saying that I've not been for months...

Pfft, it's a pleasant ten minute walk! Anyway it's not called Brockley Station Market.

I wish the coffee was as good as the food.
