Coffee roasting

[Lnk]

Anyone roasting coffee beans themselves? Been doing it off and on for a few years in a skillet, and the wife just bought me a roaster. I love coffee and was just interested in anyone else here doing it. I have tried an organic bean from Peru, and am now roasting an Ethiopian bean. So far I am liking the Ethiopian better. Just roasting until second crack right now, but will try darker.

Brother was doing it from time to time with a hot air popper. You can add extension cords to increase resistance and lower the temperature on the heating element. Gives you more time and greater control on the crack.

What kind of roaster did you get?

What kind of roaster did you get?

Wife ordered it for me. Probably Walmart. It is a cafemasy scr-400. Around $80 I think. Tried to find it quickly online but am not having much luck besides a danish site. Works well, so much easier than a skillet. Beans roast uniformly unlike my skillet, where the variation in bean color was enormous.


Found it.
