What Coffee are you roasting this week

Ronin

Thanks for the roasting offer AM & KK but I purchased some beans on Thursday. As it seems I'm not doing such a bad job compared to these beans anyway 😉

You should be seeing some stuff from that dodgy Basmati rice bloke in the next day or so.

Going home to do my first roast in MONTHS I hope I still remember how it is done. Thinking for safety stainless bowl and spoon roast of MTE478 is in order to ease back into it 🙂

600g Ethiopian Guna Limmu in two batches in the behmor, taken to second crack. That'll get me through the week...just.

Delicate rice aromatics on that one KK. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

Today I roasted 500g Yemen Sanani Mocca had trouble with hearing the cracks for the first time since I started raosting so it was a site and sell roast ;D c9.. I was quite surprised with the amount of chaff from such a small pea berry bean.. Cheers Gra..

Roasted 300gm PNG Wahgi AA in the KKTO tonight. New TO makes roasting later in the day a breeze.

Roasted 315g Laos Dong Hua Sao two days ago. Blended with a one week old Ethiopian Guna Limmu 50/50 - WONDERFUL. Roasted 300g Java Ijen and blended with 300g Ethioipian Guna Limmu yesterday. Will cup once my other blend is finished. Next roast will (hopefully) be Bolivian (you reading, Jeff? 😛 )

I hear you RM - roasting the BOL today is the most important on my list. As I know you love the devil in the detail...........here are the params I will be using Load temp 200 degrees C 70% initial airflow 2 min, 25 sec turning point 100% airflow after turning point 1st crack at 9mins 10 secs Dump at 209 on first snaps of 2nd crack Roast time 15mins 05 secs (+/- 3 secs)

Oh how I want a commercial roaster! Hopefully I can at least come remotely close to your roast with my humble home equipment and (much) smaller batch.

Richard here is what I can get from a non commercial roaster 🙂 I think it's pretty good but who knows really, I'm still too much of a newbie I think 🙂 I did the following on the weekend, well Friday and it's turned out fairly sweet with still a chocolate smell and taste. Nicaragua La Gloria Las Brisas Minutes Heat Fan Temperature 0-8 7 4.5 180 8-11 7.5 4.5 188 1c 11-13 7.5 4 195 13-15 8 4 205 I pulled it before second crack which it would have been very close to.

A tasting report on the Colombia Andes Santa Rita Before I post my report Please note that I have a preference for milk based coffee but have cupped on lots of occasions Roasted just into second crack Using the Syphon I found it very nice and smooth coffee It has a fine chocolate tint with a hint of sweetness but that sweetness may have come to me from inhaling the essence, overall very delicate and this time my pallet could no pick anything else In a milk drink, its remarkably the same but a little muted It does not cut through the milk as some other beans do Overall its a very delicate and pleasant in the cup KK

Turbo roast Ethiopian yirgacheffe Special Prep 600g pulled before second crack nice even roast good looking well sorted bean. Gra..

Too many to mention, except a new Tanzania AA from TEC Estate - first trial roast the other night - what a cracker - BF will be my lab rat next week !

Roasted up a sample of my Syrah Blend. Utterly powerful in the cup. Syrupy deliciousness. I'll add that this was through a 22g VST basket.

just finished roasting 500grm of ethiopian guna limmu , and i am a little worried that i may of took them out a tad early . after taking a couple of other roasts a bit to far i pulled these out quicker to be on the safe side . the temp bean mass was getting into the low 130's and that's where the last roast i did started getting a bit to smokey and i ended up with black divots in them , but these ones i just did the cleavage ( well that's what i call it ) on some of the beans was still very pale but the bean colour looks good though. i suppose i will find out in a few days . i am trying to get a few different beans roasted so i can taste some SO and then try some blended. johno
