So far today I've roasted 2 batches Brazil Morenhina Formosa "Raisin" Coffee, 1 batch Ehiopia D-P Haile Selassie Sidamo. So now, into the roaster...
Oooh, Yemen Mokha Ismaili roasted to 15 seconds into 2nd crack at 15:15 and dumped to the cooling tray, now cooling... Munch test, sweet, fresh & lively. Roasted weight 182 out of 227 - 20% moisture loss. I see some killer espresso next week! Just about any Yemen is a favorite and this will be a very good coffee. Mmmmm.
Next into the roaster Nicaragua Limoncillo Pacamara DP. I love this one - chocolate covered fruit candy in this coffee. It's an SHG bean so hitting it a little harder starting out at 471F right off the bat.
Nicaragua Limoncillo Pacamara DP - batch # 796... almost to the 400 pound mark!
227 grams into the preheated roaster, hot from the previous Yemen roast
Huge chaff from this one... Beans yellow at 6:30/390F
9 minutes environmental temperature is 435F... 1st crack at 11:30/455F, nice rolling 1st, drop to 444F for a nice stretch to a kiss of second ...
Argh! 2nd at 16:00 Would have preferred 17:00, but... Ugh, divots; too hot, too fast... Next time a warming stage of 300F for 3 minutes, perhaps...
Munch test is like eating candy at the first crunch, kind of creamy at the end. Very even roast. Finish weight 187/227 - 18% moisture loss.
