あらすじ・解説
Alison Pilborough bridges two worlds often seen as incompatible - artisanal coffee roasting and premium loose leaf tea blending - offering insights from her Aldinga Eco Village base about why some roasts deserve second chances and why tea drinkers are increasingly seeking calm through chamomile. The SA Drink of the Week ventures into new territory with Fleurieu Roast's 18-hour cold brew coffee, challenging even the most orthodox espresso lovers to expand their horizons. We wrap up with The Saucermen's "Devil's Elbow", their rockabilly tribute to that infamous stretch of the old South Eastern Freeway that tested nerves and brakes in equal measure before the Heysen Tunnels arrived.

Running Sheet: Small-Batch Coffee Revolution At Fleurieu Roast Aldinga 00:00:00 Intro Introduction 00:03:27 SA Drink Of The Week The South Australian Drinks Of The Week this week is the 18-hour Cold Brew by Fleurieu Roast. Picture this: an elegant Kilner jar filled with what looks deceptively like strong-brewed tea, but is actually an 18-hour immersion cold brew using light-roasted Ethiopian natural processed beans. The result offers medicinal and herbal notes that dance across the palate before cleanly disappearing - like watching a train pass at the station, leaving just a whisper of breeze in its wake. Steve's initial trepidation gives way to intrigue as Alison explains how this concentrated elixir can be enjoyed neat or mixed with water/milk in a 50:50 ratio. A revelation for summer refreshment that might just convert even the most ardent hot coffee purists. 00:12:27 Alison Pilborough, Fleurieu Roast, Wyverstone Tea, and Elevenses From the moment Alison shares her first tea memory - being allowed the "second dunking" of her mother's teabag at age 11 - we're drawn into a world where beverages become storytellers. Her journey from service station barista counting shots to award-winning roaster demonstrates how South Australian artisans are elevating everyday drinks into extraordinary experiences. The conversation deepens beyond mere beverage talk as Alison reveals the meditation-like focus required during roasting, where a single phone call at the wrong moment can transform carefully sourced beans from sublime to scorched. Yet even "mistakes" find their audience - Steve's enthusiasm for an accidentally dark-roasted batch proves the old adage about one person's trash becoming another's treasure. Between discussions of "blooming the grounds" and the politics of milk in coffee, we discover why some of Alison's tea blends now include blue lotus for enhanced dream recall - though she remains vague about some of the features of her tea-induced dreams!

The Saucermen's "Devil's Elbow" provides a rockabilly backdrop to memories of navigating that notorious stretch of the old South Eastern Freeway, where mastering your momentum was an art form all its own.
