FYI, the attached image above is just for fun. But if you're wondering how I roll, it's single-origin beans from a small independent roaster, ground fresh, and brewed in a French press.

@voltronic

and a roast that's awfully close to light to be considered medium :/

@vieuxnez
The beans and brew aren't what's in those bags. These are all old pics on my phone from different times. But the ones in the bags indicate light roast. Also, what this roaster calls light is what I consider medium. Either way, it's always fantastic.

@vieuxnez
I used to be one of those people who thought they only liked darker roasts. Then I started getting into single-origin microlot beans, and realized the lighter roasting for many of those (especially from Ethiopia) allows many subtle flavors to shine through that darker roasting would mask.

@voltronic

I still like the dark roast, but I'm considering buying light roast to see if I can get much out of darkening it myself. (and trying it out, as well). For some reason, most of the coffee where I'm at doesn't go below medium roast.

@vieuxnez
Try the roster I use (pictured). Anything in the Special Mug category. You won't be disappointed.

@voltronic

I finally got around to ordering a bunch of coffees from the Happy Mug, dark, light, and some green to try roasting. ...
