    You can pop in to coffeehit if theres something your wanting to look at. Usually best to let Paul know in advance though. Alternatively, is there anything particular you are after? There are several coffee shops that stock good range of brewing equipment; most the hario gear for example can be...

    Just for sake of clarification, coffee is a standard rated supply for VAT purposes. In fact, most hot food is.

    Humor me. Any indication of roast date?

    These are my go to recommendation for coffee scales. Unless you are doing espresso, for which I would definitely encourage weighing to .1g, they are superb value, excellent quality, and a good example of a product doing something simply and well. If any further stamp of approval is needed...
  5. Coffee Beans
    I believe they also do (or did, was a few months since I heard about it) a stall on Kings Road on a Saturday if anyone is in the area.
  6. Coffee Beans
    Steve's HasBean Christmas blends are now available. While I have yet to try the espresso, the filter blend is one of my favourites this year and worth a try.

    Hi Tova, I'm currently doing similar sort of process. If you have any questions, especially on the business plan/finance side (I'm an accountant) give me a shout, or ask Glenn, he knows how to get hold of me.

    My late Grandfather was a draftsman by trade back in the days before CAD. Some of his technical drawings I have seen, all done by hand, are incredible.
  9. Coffee Beans
    Personally I think its worth every penny, but it was a 'medium' roast. The 4 bean blend will be great if its your first freshly roasted purchase. You can always try something different after that. The important thing is that you will be buying quality beans properly roasted and with HasBean you...
  10. Coffee Beans
    Now weve ruled that one out, something like the Cachoeira would be a good alternative http://www.hasbean.co.uk/products/Brazil-Fazenda-Cachoeira-da-Grama-Bourbon-Pulped-Natural-2009%252d2010.html
  11. Coffee Beans
    ...which has now sold out unfortunately.
  12. Coffee Beans
    Oooh, which BTP you work at? (sorry, bit OT, just noticed from the Devon mention)
  13. Coffee Beans
    Glenn's question will act as a good primer. To explain, specialty coffees roasted by a skilled roaster are not usually roasted to a 'dark' 'medium' or 'light' level like you may see on coffees from sources such as the supermarket. What a good roaster will do however is roast the bean in order...

    The HSBC website has a lot of good information on business plans and starting up, certainly with regards to finances; http://www.knowledge.hsbc.co.uk/. Further if you have any specific questions re the financial side feel free to ask as I am an accountant so have some experience in these areas...

    Try whole/full fat milk. The added proteins help to get better milk texture.

    Re clumping in the Vario, I hear more recent revisions have greatly reduced this problem and everything else seems to indicate an excellent grinder for the price.
  17. Coffee Beans
    Hello all Andrew here, I met with Glenn the other day and we were discussing this. I suggested if people were up for it that we could try and set up some sort of 'Coffee Swap Shop' regular meet ups. People could meet up at a cafe and swap odds and sodds of beans much easier than posting. It...
