I guess this must be a record.
Nicaraguan High Grown Bold - I have tried two batches previously and never got them as dark as the brown beans I have been buying from shops, so I thought Id be brave and let it go. I had a few snaps and crackles after 8 minutes, and those cracks seemed to just go on forever. After a while I noticed little black discs coming out of the top, but some beans were still quite light so I let it go.
Eventually I gave up and tipped the beans out, then looked at my stopwatch. 30 minutes and 20 seconds.
Attached is a picture - they look not too bad. I also found the second largest coffee bean I have ever seen. Quite a variation in this batch.
