Re: What are you roasting today?
I`ve been using my Westbend Poppery 2 for 2 yrs now.
I put in 6 to 8 ozs. in a measuring cup, depending on the density of the beans. It was 60 in Philly yesterday, i roasted 1 1/2 lbs. of Ethiopian Yir. |

Roasted the second half of my Ethiopia Limu Jimma - Alaga Sekala. Was shooting for city + but it looks more like full city I guess.

Re: What are you roasting today?
I see a few beans I'd pull out of there, but that's just me.
Roasted some Guatemala Genuine Antigua Covadonga to FC. From Klatch.

Re: What are you roasting today?
Ethiopians tend to have a range of colors. It is good to get rid of those true quakers though. The Real light tan ones.

Re: What are you roasting today?
Looks good Brian, that one bean catches my eye though. You know the one. If it is anything like my camera phone it doesn't look like that in real life though.

Here's what I do: Before starting the Air Popper, put in in a box that is just a few inches larger in diameter than the popper. The height of the box should come up to just under the throat of the popper. Start your regular roast cycle. once you notice that the roaster does not seem to be getting any hotter (or as hot as you want) plug in another popper and have it blowing into the box that the first popper is in. This additional hot air will increase the temp very nicely. Without this, my poppers during the winter time, can barley get the beans to first crack. Here is my roast cycle: Start the first popper. Let it run for 6-8 minutes. Plug in the additional popper and get it up to first crack. Once first crack gets going I unplug the second popper and let first crack ride for a minute or two. Then I plug back in the second popper and bring it up to whatever level I want it to finish at. The second popper can just be any ol style popper. I use an easy to find, cheap one that has the vent at the bottom. All you are using it for is extra hot air.
