Two possibilities. Yes, eventually green coffee ages, and flavors are lost. Personally, I've never found much appeal in any green that's gone past a year or so.


Second, as you probably know, natural Yirgacheffes are notoriously difficult to roast JUST so. I'm at least as much of a blueberry whore as you are, and it's all I've ever chased for years now. Some of the lots I've worked with had windows that were at most 5 seconds long, generally right on the cusp of second crack, and usually only when I stretch first crack out a bit. Hit that window just right - bam! Blueberries. Miss it - flub. Nada.


I don't know if that window expands or contracts over time. I usually don't buy massive quantities any more, though if that Wote Konga you had was from Klatch, I burned through a total of 30lbs of it. Epic coffee.
