    Better to post on topic in an old thread than to start a new one that deals with an issue previously raised/discussed.

    While I don't disagree with what has been said in the last few posts, I think we need to keep in mind that as a newcomer John chose this thread to test the water because he felt he could contribute with his first post, full marks to him for that.

    Lets not turn it into an epic.

    Might be a moot point but this thread is more general and probably the one that could've been resurrected?

    Why not? an old thread but a good one. I too have struggled with this particular peaberry. Has anyone else found tipping to be an issue? Corduroy

    Because, assuming this bean is still available, he has relevant information to add to a resource thread (rather than one dealing with a specific problem that's of little use to others)?

    Why not resurrect this particular thread?

    John, welcome to CS

From my very limited experience, peaberries, whether Tanzanian or Brazilian reportedly roast evenly, but they're small beans, so I go easy with heat and time to start. If I waste a couple hundred grams, experience gained.
    G'Day Johns52, welcome to Coffee Snobs.

    Why not tell us a bit about yourself here http://coffeesnobs.com.au/off-topic/...o-easy-me.html in the off topic forum, not that easy to find for a newcomer.

    Sounds like your already into roasting, include a few details of the gear you have, experience etc.

    Re: Have problem of roasting Brazil Peaberry

    Slowly roasted to the beginning of SC. Cupped it yesterday as a SO espresso, surprisingly acidic and clean for a Brazilian... then again its a Peaberry so anything can happen. Quite sweet as well but I thought there wasnt enough body in it to hold it as an espresso blend base especially in milk, May work well work with a fully dried processed Brazilian in a 50:50 ratio.

    OK~~I tried some this morning. It was quite good this time. The body is very full. Low in acid. But I can taste more sweet this time. Its in the front of my tongue. It has a bit of "spicy" after taste which last for quite a while. Still lack of chocolate note.
    Hmmm~~Interesting findings!!!!

    Re: Have problem of roasting Brazil Peaberry

    When I roasted this bean in my Gene I found that i did have to watch the temp was a bit slower ramping at first . the overal aperance was about the CS9+ ,10 and tryed it 2 days after roast and it tasted burnt .
    5days later tasted a sweeter milder flavour but lacking the depth off chocklety flavours that i would expect .
    Still need to tweek this roast a bit .
    overall 1st imprecions are good though.
