Hey, I appreciate the willingness. No worries.
Well I jumped in on this finally after a bunch of reading and debating. Got the popcorn popper starter set and 8lbs from sweet maria's. Really looking forward to starting the final phase of upping my coffee game!
Welcome to the club. The bean pass is going to be great!
Ethiopian Illubabor. The picture looks darker than it actually is (flash on my phone isn't working). Still a bit warm to roast and taste but smells wonderful. Getting ready to order some Yirgacheffe to practice for the pass next month.
Looking forward to my 2nd batch of roasting this weekend! The first was a little lighter than I'd prefer but the flavor was great. A lot nuttier and more nuanced than the stuff I've purchased in the past. This go round I'll go a little further past first crack and maybe fine grind it for use in the GF's espresso machine vs the Aero/french press I've been using.
Question for those who have used the air poppers, does the plastic cover eventually just melt off? I remember during the first batches how incredibly hot it got and can't imagine it lasting too long

I have melted it some just doing popcorn, I don't use it for coffee, so I would imagine that at some point you will melt it. Or I just had a cheap popper.

Who is Chuck Morgan? Please step forward. He was so kind as to read my post here and send me some of his own roast to try out! And he said there was extra space, so naturally.....
thank you Chuck, I'm going to brew a cup right after dinner.

When you asked for some samples to try I just had to oblige. Pretty much read you post and went upstairs and roasted the beans. That's how easy it it. Let me know what you think, I tried to roast them on the lighter side for you. Also had to throw in a few sticks because what goes better with coffee than a cigar. Enjoy!
