    Congrats on the AP comp!
    “Danngit Elika” 😂
    Fun convo again.
    Side note, I’m stoked to get my Fellow Aiden. Nick from fellow said they aren’t sending out units early for reviews.
    I’m going to be comparing my XBloom OG with that Aiden.

      Thanks brother!
      Dang, that's probably why we haven't gotten one yet.
      I'd love to hear your thoughts on that comparison since you'll have both!

    Mark, that's such an interesting observation about your "mistake". I also sorted for color during competition, but didn't during practice. I kept saying, this roast tastes different, but it's probably because I over-sorted lol. Congratulations again on podium! Hope to see you again next year.

      For some reason, I didn't sort in prep which I probably should have.
      Didn't realize i could over-sort coffee too so it was definitely a learning experience.
      Thanks Dakota! It was a pleasure and congrats to you too!

      ​@@MirrorCoffeeRoastersI figured sorting could only benefit the cup, right? Might not be true. Also, I didn't want to sort practice cups because I didn't want to waste practice beans.
      But thank you! Nice meeting you as well.

    Onyx built a cathedral to coffee. I’ve only experienced two shops that feel this way, Onyx and Sweetbloom.

      Found it very comforting how nearly everyone struggled initially to bring forth the best out of the coffee. Fun challenge!

      Gotta second the chewing roasted seed.

      It's unreal! Onyx has built something wonderful.
      The competition was definitely a fun challenge!
