Hey David - when are you going to let me come and watch you guys roast on that YM10...? I promise not to let out any secrets... :-)

Seriously - I'd love to come and watch/learn!

Thanks David for trying the sample. I like to roast in the med range - mostly before 2C. Last night I ventured into the darker(er) side and took a Sumatra Mandheling to 450. I call it dark but really it's a med/dark. Can't wait to try it after it rests some.

Yes - we've given up on the for now. Not enough funding for the renovation - so we bought a roaster and are working on a small micro roasting business - so far we are doing well. Delete Comment

I was so pumped when I got up this morning and knew that I was going to roast coffee at LA VIDA JAVA. This was of course before I had any coffee in me. I am so excited about joining the team full-time.
