A place to discuss all things coffee, from an Australian perspective.

I've been gradually making my way through a variety of coffee beans over the last few months and was wondering what recommendations people here have for beans or roasters in Australia.

Thought it might also be helpful to anyone who was wanting to try something new but didn't know where to start.

If the subscription service has a retail shopfront I can visit and sample the coffee at, I'm more comfortable signing up. But for me it's moot because I buy beans in person anyhow. I would say freshness and roast type (espresso versus filter) is just as important in determining whether you'll like a given coffee. I used to be bigger on single origin bags (still like them) but it's possible to get used to a versatile, consistent blend.
