I was thinking last night after looking at 2 of my roasts that were quite dark and a little oily, I wish there was something that would explain some of the roast colours better.
As a rookie roaster and relatively new coffeesnob myself, I find there is heaps of information on all the roasting machines but not much about the different types of roasts. (apologies if its right in my face and Im just being blind)
The snobs card is great but its also very small.
I was thinking maybe something that had a sample colour (ie a bunch of beans) and an explanation of what you may find (eg more acidic, better for plunger etc) regardless of bean type if roasting to that colour level.
A guide on the different regions and typical roasts for these regions would probably also be good.
I would appreciate any advice or a point in the right direction. Id also be happy to write some information up if I knew a bit more.
