1517 Reformation Roast Blend

1517 Reformation Roast Review Method, Aeropress inversion Brew 15g coffee milled to an almost coarse grind in a 1zpresso. Put coffee in an inverted Aeropress, then drew 200 ml of water @ 175º Initially, poured enough water to just wet the grind, let it sit for 30 seconds before adding the rest of the water, then allowed it to brew for two minutes. Stirred in a cross pattern two times, then applied the paper filter, which was rinsed in RO water before use. Placed the cup over the brewer and flipped it and began the press, slowly, just until the “hiss”. Added 50 ml of RO water and stirred once in a cross pattern with the Aeropress stirrer. The initial sip reminded me of old diner coffee, but the next sip had a more interesting character, very flavorful without being overpowering, certainly not “burnt” like a Seattle-based coffee might be. I did appreciate the aftertaste, but did not notice the hint of blueberry others claimed, though this could be due to my own unique palate. I'd recommend his to people nostalgic for the old school coffee house coffee from before the days when "Charbuck$" started dominating the coffee house scene.

I don't taste much flavor. Perhaps I'm not adding enough grounds.

Love it!
