  How's the Behmor going ? I accidentally hit P5 instead of P1 the other day so instead of cooling down I heated the roast up! It.took me.probably 20sec to figure out what I'd done and where I was in the roasting cycle,  but I managed to pull the roast just before second crack and it was just damned delicious! Goes to show.that its best not to.make too many assumptions a out how things are done, plus I'm glad I don't have to repeat the roast profile because I'm not sure I could if I tried !

  It's going well coffeeguy, I was supposed to roast this arvo but I am too cold to move so it will have to wait. Great save, it just goes to show that good things can happen when we don't follow the rules :D.

  I tried to replicate the roast today not by ramping it but by doing a longer temperature drop once it hit rolling first crack to give it more development time and it's too soon to say but colour is good and even without being too dark so I guess well have to wait and see !😉

  Saving the first one and ending up with a good roast was a great result, but as you have found, the problem with "serendippity" moments like that is that they can be hard to replicate.  I've been there, done that,  had a few similar situations - usually due to lack of concentration and/or not taking enough notes at the time. Let's hope the latest one is just as good in the cup as the first, so you will be able to repeat it at will.

  The roast is 70℅ PNG and 30℅ Mexico SO and it's a bloody ripper! Reminds me of a similar blend that I used to run with when I had the cafe - and the extra roast development time seems to have paid dividends I actually decreased the drop temp to extend the profile and it's drinking very well at the moment Watch this space !
