Coffee Club V8

This is an order that will be delivered in the future.

In-person pickup will be in front of my N Brooklyn apartment (5 minutes from the Lorimer/Metropolitan Ave stop).

Fulfilment date: Roast date November 22nd, shipping/pickup week of November 25th

What is in the box:

You'll be receiving all three coffees. How much of each you receive will depend on which option you select. There are 4 variants:

• 120g: You'll get 120g of each coffee
• 240g: You'll get 240g of each coffee
• 240g Test Roast: This will be our first roast with these beans, so quality may have some variance, hence it's cheaper than the 240g option. You'll be getting 240g of each coffee.
• 40g Trial Version: You'll get 40g of each coffee. This is intended more for a "try thoughtfulcoffee club" purposes

Roaster notes:

This box skews more towards traditional red berries with hints of lemon here and there. The coffees here exhibit big juice body, with bursts of bright red notes with high acidity.

About the coffee:

The cherries were hand selected and batched with a ratio of 70% just ripe, 20% overripe, and 10% half-ripe. The cherries were then floated to identify the densest cherries.

The cherries were then placed in a tank for 12 hours of aerobic fermentation. Afterwards, the cherries were depulped and placed back into the tank for another 24 hours with water.

Lastly, the coffee was spread on sunbed dryers for two weeks until it reached 11% moisture content. Then the coffee was placed in Grain Pro bags for two weeks before it was milled and exported.
