After running through these beans I would suggest throwing a solid handful of white rice in your grinder, running it on a tight-burr setting - this will sop up that oil that would otherwise linger and mess with the taste of future beans. Then throw a small amount of non-special beans in there to clean out any remaining rice-flour. Always worked wonders for me. Also be prepared for some heavy crema on any shots you pull with these oily beans!
