roasting coffee is cooking right?
I roasted some coffee yesterday. Some random shit from greece. I couldn't really
decipher what was written on the package I got from the roastery so I'll have to ask
them what it was next time LOL. I used an old hot air popcorn popping machine that I
had laying around. I aimed for a light roast and a light to medium roast. I tried to
wait until I heard a lot of cracking at the first cracking stage which ended up being
at about 3 minutes into the roast. For the light roast I then waited around a minute
after that until pulling it out of the popcorn machine. For the more medium roast I
waited around 2 and a half minutes. I had some this morning and it was the best shit
I've had in months. A lot of fruity flavor notes or whatever the snobby coffee person
term is. If you have an old popcorn machine laying around and care a little bit about
your coffees taste you definitely have to try it out atleast once.
