More on i-Roasting

Ok, I'm getting the hang of this thing now. I added an extra 30-seconds to the roasting profile as mentioned in this post: Follow Up on i-Roast 2 Roasting Profile. The roast is pretty much where I want it. Woohoo! It could perhaps do with another 30seconds thrown in, and I will try that next time.

I'm starting to get confident with this home coffee bean roasting thing and my i-Roast 2 now, so I have just taken the bold step of ordering 5lb of organic fair trade greeen beans from an outfit called Seven Bridges Cooperative at amazon.com. Not sure that they will all be suited to making espresso, but there's only one way to find out.
