Green coffee storage disaster
Inspired by Brian's Aeropress thread, I went and hauled mine out of the cabinet where I keep it. Checked the components - all in order, though getting a little low on filters. Hmmm....didn't I buy an extra pack?
So I slide out the little plastic bin where I keep coffee equipment spare parts and odds 'n' ends. There are burlap bags on the top of the bin. I've been looking at those suckers for years, thinking they were empty, because I moved my beans to a drawer years ago. Wrong. Not empty. Uh oh... The biggest bag, a 10-pounder from CBC, labeled Nicaragua Maragogype Laguna Verde. Probably a half pound of beans left. In its prime, one of the best, most unique coffees I've ever had. The beans are brown. Smaller cotton bag underneath that one, also not empty. A good roast's worth of Cuban Turquino peaberry, 2004 crop. Also brown. Burlap bag under that one. Turquino Extra, 2005 crop, close to a pound. Brown. Jesus wept.
