Yellow-seed.org has a growing bunch of high quality beans directly from the processors/farmer co-ops that you can buy from. I help to represent one of the sources there if you would like some sample beans I would be glad to send you some...https://www.yellow-seed.org/products/eco-cacao-53991890-519d-4894-b9ed-25ce6c3c1f6d

Hi Jay - I am looking at sourcing too - that is how I knew of you. Can you send to Australia? If so I'll go through the Yellow Seed site.
Cheers
Kimberly
yes, I can send samples and small orders there....please order through yellow-seed to support the platform, it makes tracking/shipping easier and your feedback and input is welcomed.
Kchiz:
Hi - Try Yellow Seed.
Thanks for the recommendation!
Hi Jay,
Sorry for my late reply. I haven't been actively checking the forum post but now I am back!
I would love to receive some bean samples for running trial. May I know how it works?
Best regards,
Katie

Two changes we made with the chocolate is that this time we winnowed the chocolate. This time we didn't use a blow dryer to melt the chocolate. Two improvements with the chocolate is that the melanger didn't get clogged this time and everyone put in work.
