I have been discovering the joy of mixing different types of whole bean coffees before preparing them in my French press. I find that as long as you don’t do something crazy like mix a very light roast with a very dark roast you can end up with a lot of extra depth and roundness to the flavor. Thoughts? Am I insane? A heretic??? Have you tried it?

We do this in my house with the last bit of each bag and refer to it as “Frankenbeans.”

I just did the same - end of a batch and there wasn’t enough so I mixed some of the next for a medium-light + dark blend. Good if not great, and certainly interesting.
