My boyfriend loves coffee, and I'd love to surprise him with a variety of international coffee brands :-) For this you'll have 1 partner and you 'll send out a small package of coffee. what brand or type is up to you, as long as it's coffee :-) Newbies welcome with filled out profile. This is an international swap, so be prepared to taste the world! Since a small pack in my country is 500 grams, try to look for the same weight. :-) don't want to dissapoint anyone :)

No espresso please :-)

Could you please identify what size "small" is? I can buy a couple of sizes here that could be considered as small. Thanks!

Appelflap 06/ 6/2010 #

A small pack would be like 250 grams here :-)

I have this swap on my watch list but how much is 250 grams in the US.

Appelflap 06/ 7/2010 #

Answer: 250 g = 8.81849 oz

OR: 250 g = 0.551155 lb OR 0 lb and 8.81 oz

Could it be some different little packs of coffee? for a total of 250grams? (instant coffees etc)

Appelflap 06/ 8/2010 #

O sure, and I just went to the store yesterday to check, the most common weight we have here is 500 grams apparently. ( Now you know who's the real coffee fan in this household ;) ) So I'll be sending out packs of 500 grams. should be something of a 17.8 /18 oz.

Is it instant coffee or coffee grounds/beans? I do love my coffee ! :)

can you please specify in the swap description that a small bag is 250g :) So that everyone will see it.

And we like all sorts of coffee, beans/ground/instant :D

I am really excited about this swap because I am a real coffee gal. I start every morning with a cup and usaully end it the same. If anyone has a preference please let me know and I will do what I can. I love french vanilla but regular coffee, columbian out whatever is regular where everyone else is will be great. And beans or ground is great. Thanks for hosting a coffee swap! Mennie Lalos

i am hosting a europe only coffee swap, please join if you want more coffee :D

I'm tempted by this but 500 grams for us in the US is roughly a pound of coffee which is large and could become costly to ship. 250g is closer to a US 1/2 pound which is much better. So please clarify in the original which is it 500 or 250. I suppose if 2 ppl agreed to send a larger pack it would be ok I just couldn't commit to sending a pound of coffee overseas (It's like over $30 total, I buy good coffee)
