      I’ve been drooling over that coffee maker for years. Make mostly Chemex and pour over these days,with an occasional French press.

            Went to their site as I'm always looking for new/different coffee suppliers. Couldn't find out any info as to how dark they roast their beans. And just curious how are you brewing it. I do 90% of my brewing in a Chemex brewer.

              Hey bud. I use a Chemex set up or a French press. I’ve used a cheap drip machine as well. When I’m lazy, tired or too busy with my daughter! I’m curious about the roast as well. I’m sure they would get back
              To you if u emailed them. Check out Imua coffee roaster as well. They are in Hawaii and roast great coffees

                When you look at the beans,how dark would you say they are,as compared to a French or Italian roast,which is very dark? Thanks for the quick response. Currently getting my coffee from Old City Coffee Roasters in Philadelphia. www.oldcitycoffee.com Currently really enjoying their 6 bean espresso blend.

                  It’s on the lighter side I’d say. I’m a dark roast fan normally. By these are such flavorful coffees. So different from What I normally drink.

                    I love these guys: https://www.corvuscoffee.com

                    They source great beans and roast them gently. I really hate when beans are burned. So often it seems that great beans are sourced and then the roaster fumbles at the goal line by burning them.

                    I am especially a fan of their single origins. Some heat from East Africa in particular.

                    Think it, be it.

                        I've been told that if beans are air roasted,and they aren't coming into contact with the hot metal of the roaster,as much or as often,they can be roasted to a higher temp/darker color without imparting the burnt taste that we don't really want. Can't vouch for the truth of this information. My current beans are dark roasted without the burnt taste.

                          Kaladi Brothers here air roasts and they are glossy/oily, dark, and to my palate, overdone, but that's the only air roasted that I'm sure I've had. They have a good reputation among those who like darker coffee though.

                                Denver is great. Used to go there a few times a year to visit my buddies. They own Brothers BBQ. Grew up
                                With them here in CT. God I miss Denver. Breakfast burritos from Pete’s.

                                        Also love Colorado. If I couldn’t live in a coastal city,I’d want to be in Colorado. Great state for landscape photography. Got some really great shots at Garden of the Gods a few years ago.

                                          What's crazy is that the front range is just the tip of the iceberg. Almost the entire state is riddled with jaw-dropping beauty. My favorite range is the San Juans down in the southwest, jagged and forming box canyons like those containing Ouray and Telluride.

                                          We also have a few world-class roasters, Corvus, Novo, and Boulder's Ozo being among my favorites.

                                          Think it, be it.

                                            Love coffee and am overwhelmed with quality offerings in and around Seattle.  Started out loving dark roasts and still do, but my tastes began to shift towards the lighter side–really enjoy some of the more nuanced flavors that can be coaxed from the beans at the lighter end of the spectrum.  In practice I like to have one single origin on hand as well as a more balanced blend for varieties sake and def switch up between my short list of my 5 local favorite roasters.

                                            For Christmas/bday my girlfriend likes to get me a few month's subscription to 'Bean Box' which is a fun way to be introduced to new local roasters and their goods--though the upcharge seems a bit high for daily consumption.  You can also pick your roast levels!
