Enjoyed your light/dark Guatemala video! As a home roaster for many years, not sure a non-roaster would understand the nuances of your methods other than “the art of coffee roasting”. Well Done 😊
Thanks for the video. It helps me understand an issue I have with roasting darker. I typically use same parameters as I do with light roast but just take it to a higher temperature. My issue is I tend to get way darker tastes than the roast should be. I never hit second crack but get French roasty taste notes
Yeah. I’d just keep the flame lower the entire second half of the roast. Let it gradually get to that finish roast temp so the beans don’t get too much force applied to them. But your observation of your approach seems spot on.
Excellent video! Great insight. Love the “environment” image and your artful approach. I started with single origin roasts on the grill, and quickly graduated to a 5 lb gas drum roaster… looking to learn the nuances. I am a “creative” type anyway, looking to have more purposeful control over the process. Bravo!
