Good info on storing coffee beans!
This issue was very informative. I also enjoyed the snickerdoodle coffee recipe. I can't wait to make it!
Listen to your taste buds and smell, I always say. It is a matter of how your taste buds react to your smell versus your gut. This starts first in your mind (analyzing it), transmits to your taste buds, and includes your sense of smell. I can taste it before I try it and drink it. I know I am weird. I've been like this since grade school, according my family and friends. They always trust me.
I love all things coffee and really enjoy the newsletter โค๏ธ
Enjoy ready different explanations of different coffees Thanks
