Having read many topics on the behmor, corretto, etc I'm tempted to try home roasting. But I'm unsure on what kind of quality roast I'd get.
With the Behmor and Bean Bay beans, after a normal bit of trial and error, how would the roasts compare to the beans I currently get from the better roasters here in Melbourne, including of course Talk Coffee, as well as Padre, Axil, etc.
Home roasting appeals to me on a few fronts, but I fear that if I don't get decent results after a few weeks of practice then I'd just go back to the quality roasters I'm lucky to live near.
Incidentally, cost isn't a big deal, $400 shipped for the behmor with 2.5kg beans from Andy seems like a good price, and I'm sure I'd get most of that price back if I sold it within a couple of months, so I'm not bothered by the cost, or for that matter the savings, it's all about what the quality will be like?
