Dont forget to taste things. On 2008.03.19 at 21:34. So, obviously, I am back in the USA. I am still in the lengthy process of organizing all the photos and information from my trip. This wasn't a vacation; I was working dawn to dusk every single day except for that one Saturday that we took six hours off. There's a lot of data and stuff to sort through. Some of my pictures are already available on my flickr page. And in the meantime, here are a couple of videos:. Photos and stories to come soon.

Dont forget to taste things. On 2008.03.06 at 09:48. Cupping is in full swing here in Addis Ababa. We've found a few gems on the table already, though the overall number of samples is not what we had hoped it would be. Up to this point, we have been cupping only fully washed coffees. Later today begins the round of sundried natural coffees. I cannot say. Thankfully, I have found my scores to be within range of the other totally blind cuppers. Mental gymnastics of a sort, I suppose. This story I will save...

Dont forget to taste things. On 2008.03.23 at 21:46. It was really great to Andrew Barnett in NYC a couple days ago. I went with Mary Ellen Amato to Café Grumpy because I hadn't been there in so long and I wanted to see what they had for espresso. In addition to some good old friends working behind the counter (they were BUSY! It's my favorite espresso in the world. so it was good to drink. Willem took this picture of this astonishing little girl in Harar. Come through this area. On Zege Peninsula you ca...

Dont forget to taste things. Meta Doings and Goings-on. On 2008.03.29 at 01:29. Just a quick post to update y'all on what I am up to in the next few weeks:. I have a new bi-weekly coffee column coming out in about a week on a different website (one with a few more readers than this one! I know I have threatened this many times before, but this blog is finally. But in fresh and excitingly non-LiveJournal ways that I can't yet predict. I am not going to Ithaca for the NERBC, unfortunately. Going to Minneap...

Dont forget to taste things. On 2008.03.14 at 03:08. Still in Ethiopia. I've been asked to stay on a few days to do some coffee detective work. I am posting this from the internet- bet. In Aleta Wondo, in the Sidamo region. All the other competition judges (except for Amare Tesfaye who is busy at ECEA) have gone home, including Willem Boot. This left only Daniel and me to tell the difference between the winning lots and some other stuff. I'm coming back to New York over the weeked. For real this time.

But of course coffee people NEVER do this... - Daniel's Coffee Blog
http://danielhumphries.livejournal.com/43391.html
Dont forget to taste things. But of course coffee people NEVER do this. On 2008.03.19 at 12:36. From the Internet's best rationalist blog, Overcoming Bias. How do you tell whether something is good or bad? Human judgment is surprisingly swayed by contextual cues, rather than by the actual attributes of the thing being judged. As a recent Boston Globe article pointed out:. Shiv cites research showing that cars made in the same factory, with the same parts, but sold under different brand names (such as Toy...
