Picked up single origin Columbian freshly roasted beans from the little Collins st Sensory Lab in Melbourne for my French press. 2 x 250gram for $25, which is not bad. Plus bonus Hario V60 plastic dripper (VD-02T) with 40 filters to make awesome filter coffee.
Good coffee and a different way to enjoy the beans.

Or just pick up the dripper for $4.40
Hahahahaha - yup!
Definitely can get cheaper coffee beans and it not the deal for everyone.
But it made me happy today, so am sharing the love.
Which Hario was it?? Guessing by the price it would be the plastic one?
The plastic 2-cup kit (with filters, $4.40) is CHEAPER than the 2-cup by itself ($9.60)!

Yeah, the plastic one with 40 papers VD-02T
Thats good value - the plastic V60 should be ~$10 normally, perhaps a pricing error on their website? I've got sensory labs beans before and I like their flavour.
Was this at the entrance Sensory Lab or on Level 1 of David Jones?
At the Sensory Lab entrance on little Collins Street.
The guy that served me mentioned they had an oversupply of the v60s. I have not made pourover at home before, so going to give it a crack this week. Will be interesting to compare to my French press.
*Colombian
i did get 2 different colombian single origin beans. i made a cold brew in my french press yesterday and had a cup this morning - absolutely delicious!
last time i was there, i picked up some excellent ethiopian beans.
quite impressed with the sensory lab beans
What's good to drink instore here?
i find it best to speak to the staff there. explain what you normally drink and what tastes you have.
if you like a long black, worth trying the batch brew in my opinion.
….so 50 bucks a kilo, huh?
