COFFEE: What are you drinking?

[Mr B]

Today was Sumatra Dry_Hulled Aceh Bukit. Full City + / Vienna. Very tasty. Got even better as it cooled.

You seem to have a perchance for Sumatran coffee.....is that all you drink?

My favorite is Colombian....and easy to roast, and very forgiving if roasted too long.

I had to repair my SCCO(Stir Crazy Convection Oven) yesterday, really just some modifications to how the temp probe is held into the beans. I might be picking up a Fresh Roast SR-500 next month, just to have another roaster on hand. Not really happy with the temp control on the SCCO also. Got damaged in a move.

Nope, I like all kinds. I just happened to have roasted 2 Sumatran varieties last weekend and also some Ethiopian Dry-Process Yirgga Cheffe that I am having this morning. This one has been great. Amazing Blueberry notes.

Blueberries from a Yirg...odd

OOoohh That sounds yummy. I have some of that Ethiopian.
You make me want to get out my SOCO and roast some. But that thing not as convenient as a Fresh Roast SR-500 will be.
What roaster do you use?

And also how long do you let the coffee out-gas before brewing? I am still very much an amateur roaster....always want to know more about it.
