Sounds like some great beans! Gonna have to order some but I have never roasted before. Though since joining this sub, I kinda want to give it a go. Have you tried any of their pre-roasted?

Oynx is a roaster! All their beans are roasted by them. They’re a very third wave type of roasters so lots of fruity and floral flavors and light roasts.
Publik Coffee in Salt Lake City has some ridiculously delicious and unique roasts. I've been hooked on Beekeeper.
The Cats Pyjamas from 7 Miles Coffee in Sydney.
It's a really smooth blend of coffees from Colombia, Costa Rica, Indonesia and Guatemala.
That Onyx looks nice. I honestly haven't expanded beyond my local roasters but maybe I will try mail ordering a bag for once. Speaking of local roasters though (I'm in Portland), this is one of my go-to coffees: https://shop.coavacoffee.com/collections/coffee/products/kilenso
I also like Kalita Wave, but tend to default to V60 because my Wave is the 1-cup size and I'm usually brewing for my partner too :) That said I also switch off between paper V60 and a metal cone (made by Coava actually... yeah I like those folks).
Is this the metal cone filter you're talking about? I find I vastly prefer the taste of coffee brewed with a metal filter to paper, but the only metal filters I have are single cup. I'm also usually brewing for two, so I'm very interested in one that'll fit my Bodum Chemex knockoff! I'm a couple hours north of PDX so I'd also be happy to support a local coffee co.
I've always thought about getting a V60, do you notice any big difference in taste or convenience?
Alright, I just ordered two bags from Onyx (the Burundi, and the Geometry). Can't wait! Thanks for the recommendation.
Recently tried Taylor's Colombian San Sebastian beans. I wasn't expecting too much but for $8/225g it specified a collective of farmers and was roasted fairly light. (Package said light, but definitely more of a medium). Tasted pretty unique too with some acidity.
Especially recently with inflation, a cheap good bag of coffee is starting to become harder to get. At least in the states at the moment.
