Have you tried anything from McCabes or Bell Lane?

SOMA is decent alright.

They’ve added seating outside now also.

Bell Lane stuff is great.

I’ve had the bell lane, got a few bags off them last year, very nice I think

My favourite is Calendar, they’re from Barna, cloud pickers are very good, can’t go wrong with 3fe either,
There’s lots of top class coffee being roasted in Ireland these days, I have a preference for African coffees except for Ethiopian

Oatmilk coffee is a gamechanger. Saving the planet too @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy

Where did you get that delivery from?
Are they whole beans?

Whole beans yeah, got them off this crowd, you can try out different beans from different roasters (I know)

Tried it in my flat white, didn’t like it. It’s like having porridge flavoured coffee.

never knew this re moka pots

The base holds water, which I learned should be just below boiling before you put it on the stove. When the water boils, it generates steam, which forces the water up through the basket of grounds resting on top of it and into the top chamber. I had also been told not to pack the grounds too tightly, because it can block the water, and cause too much pressure to build up. And I discovered that you can get a better cup of coffee if you brew with the lid open; then, as soon as the coffee starts flowing out of the spout, you remove it from the heat, close the lid, and wrap the base with a chilled towel or run it under cool water to stop the extraction process. This prevents the coffee from being too bitter.

Giving up coffee tomorrow

They are overthinking that. Mokka pots are great.

I’d agree with that but I’ve clearly been doing it all wrong.
