1:16 pourover on espro bloom
~3:40 brew time (high agitation)
93°C water (~20 TDS)

first sip is bitter but not too harsh. subsequent sips have a mellow fruity acidity with a nice sweetness. the beans and the brewed coffee have the same mellow fruity sweet aroma. remains mellow after this till the end of the cup. one of the better cups i have had this year.

beans smells boozy and slightly floral.

first sip is bittersweet, mostly bitter. wine-like acidity. bitterness subsides with sips. tastes mostly boozy for the remainder of the cup. i do not usually go for this flavour profile but its not too bad.

brew smells kind of "metallic"

there is a mild bitterness with an acidity that tastes very mildly of apples. the bitterness lingers but it is not as intense/bad as the previous bcr coffees. could be ok with some tweaking maybe.

hoysala estate naturals (""light roast"")

had lofty goals (in hindsight) of comparing washed/naturals of the same coffee but the washed one was bad so.

beans & brew smell sweet and a bit burnt.

less immediately bitter like the washed one but it washes over the tongue with sips. rest of the brew tastes empty. maybe a very slight acidity. needs tweaking.

brew smells burnt, woody, ashy

the taste is a wave of bitter burnt taste with nothing else. i have never tasted this much on the spectrum of bitterness before. might be hallucinating an extremely faint hint of peanuts in the background

ground beans smell very fermenty/boozy. brew smells fruity; a bit burnt.

first sip: mildly sweet with fruity acidity. theres a significant bitter aftertaste that overwhelms everything else. bitterness mostly reduces with further sips. definitely have to go less agitation on this one.

the brew smells sweet.

first sip is slightly sweet with some acidity. a slight tea like mild bitterness. the acidity reads like grapes with more sips. very mellow. wonder how this will do with less agitation.

brew smells faintly like cloves and cardamom.

first sip is mostly bitter with a tiny hint of citrus like acidity. afterwards bitterness fades a bit and the citrus note becomes more prominent. the bitterness remains steady until the end. might try some things to lower the bitterness later.

ground beans smell sweet and chocolaty.

first sip is slightly acidic and bitter with mild sweetness. subsequent sips taste wine like and somewhat fruity. there is a faint milk chocolate aftertaste too. going to try with less agitation later.
