    Re: newby roaster

    I did my second roast yesterday and did a medium roast. I made an espresso after work today and it was spot on compared to my first roast which was a little overdone.
    Only a couple of weeks until I buy my Silvia now...........cant wait!!!

    My Coffeesnobs starter pack arrived today and I immediately got out the popper and headed for my workbench in the garage.
    I think I may have done a fairly dark roast, but have a good idea of timing for the next batch.
    I cooled the beans and being an impatient person I ground some of the freshly roasted beans and made an espresso, I was pleasantly pleased with the result, quite stong but smooth and they should get better after 24 hours.
    All-in-all I am rather pleased with my first foray in roasting.
    Thanks Coffee Snobs for giving me the information and desire to advance my coffee skills and appreciation of the bean.
Working...
