Coffee Box Pass?

I am assuming that the box will go around twice, so that everyone in the list gets a sample of all the coffees? And remember, the more people you have (at 1 lb. each) the heavier the package will be... :shock:

Yes, it will get to the end and then come back. I will only be 5 lbs, so I dont think it will be that bad. Or, I could just start it with the Peaberry, and everyone take that. I am open for ideas.

If it's just the five of us it shouldn't be a problem. I agree that we should have it go around twice. Any room for cigars in there? Maybe, one per bag of coffee? Or, one per person? What are your thoughts?

They don't weigh much and I LOVE cigars with coffee.
 
Brenda:

Brilliant Idea! We could put in our favorite smoke with coffee for the others! Is that okay with everyone else?
 
That sounds like a great idea...... Damn, I gotta get going on this!!

Hope to catch you guys on the next go around!

Fine with me. I guess I will close this now with us five. I have tomorrow off, so I will go out and get the coffee. I am out at home anyway. I will put in 4 sticks also, and you each can take a bag of coffee and a cigar. So here is how the order will go:

Capt
Kelvin
Cybrus
Brenda
then backwards.

Brenda
Cybrus
Kelvin
Capt

You only have to take the sticks on the initial pass. If I am doing something that you feel should be done different, please let me know. Maybe there is a better way to do it. Also, PM me everyones address. I have the b-day list somewhere, but I can't find it.

I am going to put in Costa Rican Tarrazu. Please post here with the coffee you intend to put. Make sure it is labeled in the bags.
 
Cool Captain - I will grab my coffee this weekend also so it's ready for when the box arrives.

Just help me out with the sticks. Do I put in also so that Brenda and Cybrus will take from me also? I am a little confused with the logistics of the cigars.

Sorry if I am making this tougher than it is.
 
LOL. It is confusing to me still, too! I think I will put in the inital 5, then everyone can take one and leave one. Or, I could put in 10, and you all can each take two and leave two. You dont have to do it the second time around, unless you see a stick in there that you want. Ryan
 
I don't know if Spider knows he is in this - you keep saying 5 people, but you only ever list 4! Heh...

OOPS!! Spider, you ARE IN!!! I need your address by Tuesday. Thanks!

What if we put one cigar with each bag.
 
Yes - we can attach it right to the bag! Brilliant! Sorry that commercial is in my head - my son goes around saying it all of the time. So then Capt would put in 4 bags of his with 4 cigars, I will take one and put in 4 bags of my coffee with sticks attached, and so on.
 
sorry if my input has confused you... I am not ready with the coffe things yet, I still have to get equipment first. But I think this latest plan of cigars with the coffe is great. I will try to get in on the NEXT pass.
 
Ok!! it looks like it is just the four of us. We each will get a quarter pound of each coffee!!! I just have to decide which cigars now..... :roll:
 
Not to confuse you guys but wouldn't it be easier to send your blend of coffee to each person on the list? This way the freshly roaste coffee will not be sitting in a box for up to a month and will retain its integrity (sp). Going through the mail system up to five times could damge some of the beans. Just a thought.
 
I thought about that, maybe it could even save on the shipping costs too. Anyone????
 
Don't know if it would be cheaper or not (probably would), but it might not be a bad idea just because we'll get it faster! Heh
 
It sounds so crazy. . . it just might work!



Hey, I'm game if everyone else is.





(thanks phish.)
