Re: What are you roasting today?
Garry, I was late getting in on your original request, but am glad you found a source for your recent purchase of green coffee beans.
I'm going to add the following source located down our way in SoCal for your review, and possibly for your next purchase. Sign up for their email specials (discount codes). The codes are great when purchasing a few+ pounds. Bodhi Leaf Coffee Traders also has a great selection to choose from too: http://www.bodhileafcoffee.com/collections/green-coffee Oh, fast shipping to your door step too:tu |
Re: What are you roasting today?
Thanks Mark.

Re: What are you roasting today?
Fired-up the West Bend Poppery II late this morning (sounds like a whopping commercial roaster doesn't it?) and roasted up some Brazil Bobolink Brown (about 15.25oz post-roast)...

Re: What are you roasting today?
Looks good Mark, I roasted 8 oz. of Brazil Araponga last weekend and have really been enjoying it.

Re: What are you roasting today?
I stopped by Bodhi Leaf yesterday and as suspected, when they changed their web site there were a couple of glitches, our discount code being one of them.
The 10% discount code, "CIGAR" is back in effect. By the way, the warehouse is brimming with some really nice beans! :dr :banger |

Roasted 8oz of Kenya AA last night as the Rwanda I roasted earlier in the week just wasn't what I wanted to drink. |
Re: What are you roasting today?
I used a drip style, normally 8 cups.

Re: What are you roasting today?
I think I over-roasted this Maui Mokha. I only heard one or two snaps at first crack and kept pushing it longer, but then it hit second crack all at once and started smoking. Smells a little burnt. I'm going to clean the Behmor and roast another batch.

Costa Rica La Minita. This is one stellar bean in the cup :D

Re: What are you roasting today?
Roasted Guatemala Xinabajul Santa Barbara on Sunday and had my first cup today and it was really good. Roasted Costa Rica Helsar Miguel Rojas last night and I changed my roaster settings after doing some research on roasting profiles. I really need to look deeper into the whys of coffee roasting, any recommendations for books on coffee roasting? :cf1

Re: What are you roasting today?
I bet your place smells heavenly. I thought about roasting my own, but my wife would kill me if I started another hobby. I do love good coffee.
|
Re: What are you roasting today?
You know, its interesting. Roasting coffee doesn't really smell like coffee.

No. Unfortunately not. I did at one time, but the grinder broke and I never did replace it.

Re: What are you roasting today?
I always struggle with what to buy. I don't really have a favorite yet as there are so many beans to try.
Some suggestions..? |

Probably the best way to immerse yourself, is to simply purchase a sampler from one of the following: Bodhi Leaf Trading (down this away in SoCal). You can use our coupon code of "cigar" for an extra 10% off your purchase: http://www.bodhileafcoffee.com/colle...eves-favorites You get 5lbs (5 one pound bags) from different regions at their choosing for you. There is also Sweet Maria's up in Northern California for a sampler purchase: https://www.sweetmarias.com/product/...coffee-sampler You can choose a 4lb or 8lb sampler pack. They chose the green coffee beans and regions for you. |

Re: What are you roasting today?
Roasted a blend last Sunday of equal parts Guatemala Premium Frijanes, Ethiopia Halo Bariti, and PNG Arokara in my new Aillio Bullet. Amazingly complex and fruity, medium acidity and syrupy mouthfeel. Loving this roaster! :banger

Re: What are you roasting today?
I am half thinking of getting into roasting my own because, you know, I need another hobby. No clue where to start or what I'll like. I do like Folgers Black Silk and Starbucks Komodo Dragon.....
Any advice?? |

When you start roasting you will be able to get green beans from different countries to try and see what you like. I roast 1/2 pound at a time and usually twice a week switching between different coffees every couple of days. :2 |
Re: What are you roasting today?
I got a simple Bodum pour-over from Target on clearance for $8. Huge difference already.
