Do you love to travel? Good coffee and good food? Big trucks and being self-employed? Then maybe a Food Truck is for you! Follow along with the Wandering Bean. We have been on the road for 15yrs and are about to begin another season. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
I think about bacon drizzled with maple syrup and a black coffee on the side as one of the best flavour combinations so why not try and put them all in one cup?
Not like this mind you
puttingweirdthingsincoffee blog makes me laugh and he's never quite wrong but I did it more like this...
Start with 1lb of fresh roasted Ethiopian coffee
lay out the beans out on cheesecloth make sure they are in a single layer
COLD SMOKE for 1hr 20 minutes, vent open
smoke away
let beans cool
grind, brew and sip
add maple syrup to sweeten
wandering bean POP-UP will be sampling at our next event. Keep an eye our for the Woodie

Grab a WANDERING BEAN COFFEE!
will be the first booth to greet you at the south end of Arthur St.
with piping hot fresh roasted coffee.
OPEN at 6am (ugh)
so i was thinking about breakfast all in one cup. looked into it and found the following. egg. eggshells too. grind them up and add them to your coffee? blow my mind, the eggshell of my mind.
before we begin please turn to the bottom of the page and start the music. video is just a pic of a garage i assume as an ode to the 'garage band'. bless them all. this is not a song i randomly looked up either. it puts you in a deadhead frame of mind.
help me separate the yolks from my whites
Lutheran Church Basement Egg Coffee
wash the egg. crach over coffee. throw in the shells too
1 cup of medium grind coffee. i had fresh roasted yirgucheffe
add a tbsp of water and make into a paste
add 6 cups or boiling water. boil for 10-15 minutes
you are supposed to add a cup of cold water at this point
to make grinds and shells settle.
i filtered it instead. had to stir to get it all through
it's very clear. not thin. clear. smooth, red and glossy.
more like tea
and it tastes like very mild coffee but not weak coffee.
no egg taste
maybe it makes bad coffee good?
maybe it adds protiens?
maybe it reminds you of your scandinavian roots?
a lot of steps and i'm not sure what for...
hope you enjoyed the tunes atleast
PLASTIC BY NATURE
"Gazing out my window I can see the snow below, and it flows into my soul from the eggshell of my mind. I found a way I could navigate my boat through these troubled waters, to the shores of Shangri-La.
Eggshells, Eggshells, help me separate my yolks from my whites.
Standing in the phone booth just waiting for the call, but I don't know who it is or where they are. Biding my time, in the heart of the purple city, these bright lights shining in my eyes.
Eggshells, Eggshells, help me separate my yolks from my whites.
So there I was, all alone. Nowhere left to go but down. Only thing on my face was a frown.
Eggshells, Eggshells, help me separate my yolks from my whites."
we therefore have a lot of coffee sitting around so I had an idea, roast it and rub it on whatever meat was in the fridge, turns out we had a mass of ribs
first i roasted a bit of Tarrazu RFA and searched for a recipe. found this recipe for rib eye steaks but thought it would do. Bobby Flay I think?
1/4 cup ancho chile powder
1/4 cup finely ground expresso-roast coffee beans
2 tbsp sweet paprika
2 tbsp dark brown sugar
1 tbsp dry mustard
1 tbsp salt
1 tbsp ground black pepper
1 tbsp dired oregano
1 tbsp ground coriander
1 tspn ground ginger
2 tspn chile de arbor powder or cayenne (optional)
didn’t have dried oregano or corriander so i threw in something green, sweet basil?
The direstions were ”rub it on” Hm
i removed the membrane stuff off the back of the ribs first (scrape knife along bone to start then peel back) salted and peppered and cooked for about 3 hrs at 350 with the lid on.
THEN i rubbed, Bobby!
bbqued for about 7-10 minutes on each side…well i didn’t. Blair did. it’s cold out there!
no words needed
rated a 9/10 by the family. maybe a little more sugar to balance espresso
