It was after I had been to one yard and treated 16 horses and removed 16 beans. How did you get the name ‘The Bean Queen’? I just spend a few minutes massaging the beans out - I always manage to get them out. Owners should not be picking the smegma off either.
I will often lubricate the sheath first and leave it for a bit while I treat another horse, and then by the time I have come back to it, the beans will have loosened up and they are easier to remove. I simply use KY Jelly, a water-based lubricant, and vinyl gloves - never latex gloves. I use no chemicals or baby oil, because that just attracts grit. It is such a delicate area and you have to be gentle. There is strictly no scrubbing! You will often hear of owners scrubbing the sheath area with soapy water but this is the worst thing you can do. What is the process involved in removing a bean? Sometimes horses need to be sedated by a vet first but that is rare. Join our wholesale program or order coffee subscriptions online.
They are often relieved straight away and visibly more comfortable. JJ Bean is Vancouvers favourite independent specialty coffee roaster, honouring people through freshly roasted seasonal single origins and espresso blends, daily baking, and distinctive cafe designs. I would say that 99% of horses will start off being difficult but I can guarantee, if a horse has beans, they will stop being tricky pretty soon - it is almost like they are asking you to remove the bean. I visit Robert Whitaker’s yard to clean his horses and have treated his top horse, Catwalk IV. I have clients across the disciplines, including ponies, ex-racehorses and showjumpers. Although the stallions end up enjoying it far too much! I mostly treat geldings, but I have also cleaned a few stallions, and a donkey. They are more comfortable and happier within themselves. The feedback I get from owners is that their horses are so different in their temperament after having beans removed. The biggest bean I have removed was bigger than a fifty pence piece (pictured, below) - it was more like the size of a golf ball. It is well worth it so don’t let that run you off.I will definitely be going back again, possibly later today for some chocolate covered espresso beans but if not today then tomorrow morning for sure.What’s the biggest size bean you have seen? It makes perfect sense after you figure it out but it might be surprising the first time you visit this location. Everything was hot, tasted fresh and the muffin tops were very good (and an amusing item to have available).This is not a negative, just an FYI, they have the most confusing parking lot / drive through lane set up I have ever seen. There really is something for all coffee drinkers.Also, things like Red Bull / Rock Star smoothies, frozen hot chocolate and the ability to add protein powder to several of the drinks makes this a great place to go no matter the time of day.Once the order was placed, it was ready very fast. The coffee selection is solid and well thought out. Even when dealing with the long line, the staff was extremely friendly and took the time to go over a few of the menu items. I had never been to a Human Bean location before today and I have to say, I was really surprised.
