Jamaica BM is lower acid than many of the african coffees. It's easier on my stomach, and has a terrific aroma.

The stuff at Costo - if you read the lable - is 10% jamaica plus other choice coffees....

Coffee roasting is just one more habit I cannot afford...

Try to get as much information as to where and when it was grown.
JBM can be stellar one year and only so-so the next.
Norman might know more about this, he drops by every so often.

A little off subject, but if I had about 12 grand burning a hole in my pocket, I'd make these guys an offer on this roaster! Seeing as how I don't have 12 grand, I won't.

Its not an inexpensive venture vs buying off the shelve grocery coffee's.
Although I am glad that I was able to learn how to roast my own
coffee through friends on this very forum. I never appreciated a good
cup of coffee until I learned how easy it was. Each & every morning I
can look forward to a great cup of coffee.

I've tried both, more than once, and they're not really my cup o' Joe. I prefer coffees that jump out of the cup and slap me around a little...and you generally won't get that from Island coffees.
The Dawg speaks sooth. JBM and Kona just miss me somehow and I've spent a LOT of green trying them both. I guess I equate it to having dinner at Charlie Trotters, if you don't like it, you are obviously not sophisticated enough.

Yeah, well...

I know what I like.
