Round one in the books - SB trumps Black Cat with ease


Here are the results. The big surprise? After tasting the perfect crema and spice of the cat, aint no way my two friends change their minds, the cat was the bomb.. until we tried the right temp *$ (95C steady state on the brewt). Then it was, wow. i can't believe it. i never though starbukcs was that good. Surprises all around (except me).

Pic of beans, *$ is the darker roast on right.
