I was given some Jamaican Blue to try out. Just did a roast on the Behmor. 200g 1/2 P2 B (plus 1-2 minutes so I can time the cooling manually at first signs of second crack) - I use this setting on pretty much everything. Very distinctive cracks. Came out beautifully consistent looking. Will have to wait a few days before sampling.
Cheers, Daniel

Re: Advice on roasting Jamaican Blue in Behmor
I have been roasting JBM for 2 years in the Behmor. I have had best results with lower size roasts and roasting at P3 (1 pound setting). I now roast 240g batches, but did 285g last year.
Here are my recent notes:
"First outliers of first crack at 4:00
Rolling first crack at 3:40
Set timer for 10 seconds - when timer goes off, open door fully
Set timer for 30 seconds - when timer goes off, close door
Set timer for :25 with door closed, then open door for 15 seconds
Then do it again ...
Set timer for :25 with door closed, then open door for 15 seconds
Then press cool to start cycle
After 1 minute, press OFF, remove beans to external bean cooler
Then restart Behmor by pressing Cool
Wait 3 DAYS for roasted beans to mature"

Roasting JBM 101
Hi all,
Just wanted to open the floor to anyone who would care to share the benefit of their experience roasting JBM. I received 1kg of green as a gift and as I am new to home roasting I want to avoid pouring $100 down the sink!! I'm using the Behmor 1600 for point of comparison.
Thanks in advance.Tags: None
