TODAY’S COFFEES roasted in San Diego on 3/29/24:
WEST BEAN: Colombia Supremo Popayan; Booster Seat half caff and the rest distaff dark roast. Said to be an afternoon coffee by someone unfamiliar with the concept. New. http://thewestbean.com
ZUMBAR: Ethiopia Natural Jemjemo Wolde Hirbe organic, light roast, 74112 and 74110 cultivars. They recommend it for espresso; we think it’s better on a V60, Hario or phin. Undecided on Aeropress as usual. http://zumbarcoffee.com
