I received an FZ-RR-700 today and have a kilo of Monsoon Malabar to play with. Wondering / hoping that someone has tried this combo and may be able to offer guidance.
From my (very minimal) understanding, the FZ-RR-700 roasts differently to other methods. Once cooled, the beans can be used immediately.
I also understand (same minimal applies) that Monsoon Malabar is a different bean to most, in part due to being exposed to rain and wind which causes the beans to swell and lose acidity. It needs resting for much longer than other beans.
Which makes me think that some of the standard advice on roasting/resting may not apply to this combo.
As always, any help will be much appreciated.
Cheers
