Re: First popper roast - India Madikeri A
Well, for me (being of a very curious frame of mind), I wanted to know what happens at all stages of a roast, not just the beginnings of or early stages of Second Crack(SC). I also (popper) roasted small batches of beans to all stages of a roast as per the pictorial explanation provided in Sweet Marias website and then cupped the results later on; with the exception of the really burnt beans.
I cant see anything wrong with wanting to personally experience, observe and record every stage of the roasting process. It all adds to ones knowledge base and helps, not hinder ones complete understanding of the process.
Fair enough if you dont want to do this, I did and so did a lot of others when I used to frequent the alt.coffee usenet group years ago. One way or another, I learned an awful lot about many aspects of the roasting process and many other things.
Each to their own... 8-)
