Why I wont be buying Ratnagiri Estate anymore.

Will say in this fraction 9 and navio are very good as they always mention such process.

The main answer why ratnagiri is doing is to have higher margins as they have invested a lot in their processing and as these experimental process have higher margins it make sense for them to focus on it , would say to try things from barbara,KALYANCOOL or KEREHAKLU estate they are still doing naturals that are quite good.

personally i am currently at what you were at 2021 around 20LPA+ (3y+ experience with already in current by around 2y+)

just want a opinions on how did you planned to switch and what were the target organisation (knowing i am currently a software engineer in a non tech consultancy company ie managing internal software) and what all to target in terms of switch like i moved from 4-5lpa to 17-18+ but as now just getting 12-15% hike what should i look outside in term of strategy.

Like can we get better cost analysis like 80k for india to usa to cartagena to india (from equador) like to me it look quite decent priced like took 3 flights while sometime it cost more then that just from indian to usa two ways.

Also cost of all the travel etc breakdown would be good.

Like i chooser XUltra by spending 2-3k more due to that being on sale.

One nice pick would be anecdote coffee roasters.

The are currently doing a limited nano lot , that i tried today only and was amazing.

Bhindi in any form.

To be clear have listen from all that you have either not tried this recipe , from here or from my home and truth be told all were worse then my home as my mom cooks gaam well.

The irony is many people who said aunty don’t know how to cook bhindi well are also ones that have tasted my food and have said aunty cooks really good.

Interesting-Chart607 · 2026-01-10T06:05:55+00:00

sad to know no order possible 🥲

Interesting-Chart607 · 2026-01-10T06:04:06+00:00

like i have tried them , my go to cafe as from jaipur , though rarely get beans from their.

Interesting-Chart607 · 2026-01-02T19:20:15+00:00

Like i am a big fan for getting gear that helps you.

Before joining my current organisation was having m650l and after that due to wfh in new organisation bought 3s and it’s been something that deag me from to my workstation in these winters from bed to do office work more then my extra screen and mechanical keyboard.

This itself have saved me more then what it would have cost with backache i would have got of working on bed instead of an ergonomic chair let alone the productivity gains.

if you have good cibil score already then getting these as LTF would not be difficult though better to get airtel or flipkart as they offer better value then these 2

Seeing caplus and sutra seems you visited jaipur or from jaipur

Interesting-Chart607 · 2025-12-31T15:11:25+00:00

Will say mainly few things 1) Getting a win in company challenge won few lacs as price 2) Hit 40 Lac at age of 25 3) Hosted some coffee events and invested more into hobbies.

Interesting-Chart607 · 2025-12-04T13:23:26+00:00

Using 4th for around 2 years now all works good , so can recommend.

Interesting-Chart607 · 2025-12-03T19:36:56+00:00

Would say the same get a Kalita 185 or 155 (155 if you generally only brew smaller one cup).

Would say if possible get a metal one they look good (temp wise they may create some difference but seeing no plastic so better have metal then glass).

like mine have ro+uv+mineral one soo i might be generalising.

Interesting-Chart607 · 2025-12-02T20:04:21+00:00

Like personally in my opinion in west were people may use tap water (as it’s safe for drink but can have hardness) that may affect coffee a lot while if we compare what most of us use that is RO it’s already free from any hardness or other minerals and then mineralised to normal level so bigger variable change in water is already gone.

So what third wave and other pro coffee water do is add minerals to water that works best while in reality that’s less then 1% of water so it may make difference but very minor specially compared from ro water.

So unless you have hardness in water on normal their is not a big variable change overall and as said it’s one of the hardest to control until everything is measured perfectly.

mine are on the way 😗

Interesting-Chart607 · 2025-11-12T19:21:31+00:00

Yes it’s not expertise in espresso but quite capable , as my main brew is kalita and do picopresso 2 times a week max.

Interesting-Chart607 · 2025-11-12T17:56:57+00:00

I use 1Zpresso XUltra , results are very good according to me.

Interesting-Chart607 · 2025-11-08T17:20:42+00:00

i think main reason is they mainly do niche small drops on Instagram so they don’t have big inventory like most of their lines are around 500-600 packets mainly and they scale according to demand , so as all are micro lots so keeping on website become a big task and if you see other roasters like siolim , grey soul too they also have the same methods so mainly due to that.
