It's weirdly convenient that Amazon decided to bundle all my orders into one box...Which is arriving tomorrow, I applaud their smart thinking.

However, this rushes my deadline for getting roasted coffee beans. I will put an order in for some roasted beans from a local place on Wednesday; after finishing an errand which I've put off for a while.

I'm chuffed about being able to enjoy coffee on my days off and drinking tea during the work week!

@WanderingInDigitalWorlds

Where do you get your beans from?

@Dennis5891 I'm going get mine from a local place, Galaxy Girl Coffee. As they roast beans to order and they are close to my apartment!

@WanderingInDigitalWorlds Yeah, the last batch wasn't my cuppa, but the bag coming today is some nice stuff. African beans.

@wendigo Ethiopian and Madagascar Coffee Beans tend to be good! I'll switch it up with Columbian, Costa Rican, and Peruvian beans as time goes on.

What type of beans weren't your cuppa?

@WanderingInDigitalWorlds It doesn't say, oddly. I thought it did. At any rate, it was a bag of Cameron's Organic Mountain Gold. I thought for sure I was going to dig that...

@wendigo Huh, yeah that's odd as Cameron's is well known for labeling their coffee bean bags properly. 🤔

Those beans sound good in theory, perhaps a few bad or poorly roasted beans made it into the bag.

@WanderingInDigitalWorlds It does say 100% Arabica sustainably sourced, but I'm used to seeing a specific region or country.

WanderingInDigitalWorlds,
@WanderingInDigitalWorlds@mstdn.games avatar

@wendigo Arabica could be from anywhere, this seems suspect. Naming the country of origin and farms would be a better indicator of the truth of those 'sustainably sourced' beans.

Seems like Cameron's has something to hide in this case. 🤔

@WanderingInDigitalWorlds Well, I won't be buying it again. It was alright. Not terrible, not great. The stuff that was just delivered is more my speed. San Francisco Bay Mocha Java.

@WanderingInDigitalWorlds@mstdn.games avatar

@wendigo Smart, the San Francisco Mocha Java sounds lovely! I don't know what I'll order for my first set of beans in a while; It will take some time to decide on what roast I desire!

@WanderingInDigitalWorlds Their Organic Rainforest, Foglifter, Scandinavian Blend are also good. Not impressed with the Hawaiian, though.

@wendigo I'll have to try those; I've seen them all available in Walmart (I must unfortunately go there for an errand). I might treat myself to some beans from there for immediate gratification if my choice hasn't been locked in. 😂

@wendigo@metalhead.club avatar

@WanderingInDigitalWorlds I wish they were available in mine! Not a bad choice at all for big-brand coffee. But, I like it a bit heavy...

WanderingInDigitalWorlds,
@WanderingInDigitalWorlds@mstdn.games avatar

@wendigo Huh, Cameron's seems like that brand which would be a universally stocked one at Walmart. I made a huge assumption in this case!

I do like a dark, heavy coffee...Though, lately I've been into medium and light roasts too! I still intend to shop locally for my first bag of beans. I might end up making a list and just randomly marking an item after work on Tuesday! As choices like this are solved by randomness.
