| Tom's Cupping Log - First Evaluation for Incoming Coffee Samples at Sweet Maria's Coffee | |||||||
|
|||||||
This is a log of incoming samples here at Sweet Maria's with only the total score recorded and a Y or N for further evaluation. Scroll to the bottom to see the most recent cupping notes. This a pre-screening process, with my personal cursory comments. I often go back and cup a sample that I give an N to after rethinking it. After I reroast and recup a Y sample, then we try to actually get the coffee which does't always work out ... or the opposite happens: a sample is great and then the coffee arrives and it is not, so we reject it. This can happen alot! A favorable entry in the cupping log does not necessarily that the coffee is about to arrive. It could be months away. After we actually receive a coffee, then I pull another sample, roast it several times, and cup it with a new scoring sheet and write the full review. The idea here is to give an impression of the work we do ... this is not a preview list of things you will see on our actual offering sheet. Note: the excel file I use to generate this log became corrupted! So I have been unable to update this page directly from my cupping log database, and it's not practical to do it daily in an html editor. Hopefully I can trouble shoot the excel file, or repair it otherwise... stay tuned. In the meantime, this file will not reflect new incoming coffees - Tom 9-2-05 |
