After the old forum software breaking in a way that we were unable to fix, we've migrated the site to a new platform.

Some elements aren't working as we'd hoped - some avatars didn't survive the transition, and we're still having issues with attachments that weren't added as inline images, but we're hoping to have that all sorted out soon.

    Hey Jonty, that looks great!  Roasted a bit lighter than 2nd crack I'd love that in my plunger.  Let us know how it turns out.  :thumb:

    After a Beangreen order and some individual roasts I am roasting the following blend today: Columbian Bachue  250g Blu Batak 200g Ethiopian Djimmah 250g Guatemalan Liquid Amber 250g Where is the Brazilian I hear you ask??  If I have tears it may be because this turned out to be an awesome blend... or it may be me lamenting the Brazilian!!

    Did my first to batches of Hondura El Filo COE. First batch was 350g in the Behmor 1P P1 ++++. Second batch was 300g 1P P2B. Was much happier with the second batch, but the proof will be in the cup.

    Snap - I did three batches early this morning (hint: don't let kids choose a sport that can possibly start at 7am Sundays), all 350g 1P2B.  The last one I was day-dreaming and didn't wedge the door after 1stC so hardly any gap to 2ndC - Oh well, It'll be interesting to see the difference.  Bit of a chaff monster.

    Just did a back to back roast on the KKTO of 800g of India Monsoon Malabar AA, and 800g of Bolivia Green Mountain The Monsoon Malabar was a tricky beast as a fair proportion of the green beans seem to be under-ripe - so I pulled the roast about 20sec into 2nd crack, and sorted by hand those which failed to make the mark - probably 40g in all so not too bad really Then I dropped the Bolivia into the roaster immediately after cooling the Malabar down, and emptying the chaf - and this was a dream to roast by comparasen - with lovely, even colouration, and obvious progression between !st and second crack I took this one a little bit darker than the first - but only by about 20sec, and I'm happy with the evenness and colouration of the roast Both roasts worked out pretty well, and I've a feeling that I'll be sampling them both at work this weekend! Cheers, Pat

    200gram Guatemalan Capteillo Y Anexos CoE 2011, Was doign other things at the same time and this one ran a bit quicker than I'd like, but turn point 50 sec after dropping beans, First Crack 11 1/2 min  and pulled at 14 1/2 min just prior to second crack. Looks nice, time will tell. More info on the beans (the 2010 year I think): http://www.guatemalancoffees.com/auction/2011/?farm=88 Also did a roast of Laos Bolaven organic, finished off the bag - took just into 2C

    I did 350g of Panama from Beangreen this afternoon. I'm loving the Behmor :) OH loves it because it's quieter while he's working, although I try to roast when he isn't at home. Photo taken outside.

    Excellent effort SS - nice even depth and excellent roast development - the technical terms escapes me once I've consumed a few drinks.........it's what I call the "puff factor" of the bean. Panamas are lovely to roast - generally roast very evenly and can surprisingly take quite a lot of heat without breaking down or showing signs of scorching or tipping.

    Thanks a lot guys, I appreciate the feedback  :thumb: ...for behmor people I did this on 1 P2 C, first crack was at 11 minutes (although that was when a lot of cracks were happening, I was having intermittent cracks for about a minute or so before that) and second crack two minutes later.

    Having a PNG couple of weeks. 3kg of PNG Wahgi AA I had from last year and another 2kg of some PNG Gouno as well. 7kg extra PNG Wahgi arriving to test with plus I have found another bag since. Plan is to roast 4 or 5 roasts of it this week and then the rest the week after to set a benchmark and some starting rules for my new roaster. FREE Wahgi anyone? :) Seriously if anyone would like some then for around 500g for $8 or 1kg for $12 to cover postage and a coffee bag or two, apart from some for my cupping and testing I am going to be giving the rest away locally as I play. Bit like a drug dealer giving out free samples  ;) Drop me a PM.

    Mind you it was a chafey bean and the colour etc was interesting...  Enough chaff that I could have mistaken the bean for a parchment type.
    I've read this a couple of time now from a few people and it's got me a little intrigued. Surprisingly, I don't get a whole lot of extra chaff when I roast it - for me it's just like any normal/standard washed central in terms of chaff generation.

    That COE from Brendan smells like a fruit salad /Monsterio delicios and thats when it's GREEN...
    I haven't seen anyone else other than you comment on this, but it definitely is the best smelling green bean I've ever sniffed. Amazing smell.

    The chaff seems very "light", so it's possible that just with our types of roaster that the chaff is getting big updrafts, and taking up lots of space?
