I tried Weaver's espresso and french roast from the first article.Loved both of them. By the way they have free shipping on orders over $ 35 thru the 13th on their news letter.Priority Mail made it from the left coast in 2 days.Very fresh.

Hey Todd,
On the Weaver beans - how dark was the roast?
If you hold a handful of beans - how would you rate the oil spotting?
  1. No spotting.
  2. Spots on 1/3 of the beans
  3. Spots on 1/2 of the beans
  4. Oil on most of the beans

Thanks,
Michael

There is a follow up article today.

Thanks for the link to the original one.  I couldn't find it with a search on SF Gate.

Curt

Sorry, I just noticed I'm repeating a previous post.

Weaver's espresso a tad darker than light french. There is very light oil on all beans. I have ordered from them a couple of times. They are very quick in getting the order out. Always a hand written thank you and note on invoices.

I ordered coffee from Weaver's as well after reading the article.  It arrived very quickly and tasted as good as it smelled.  The single origin Peru Organic is great!
