Been roasting my own beans for some months. Thought I’d share my latest batch, Ethiopian Yirgacheffe (lemmy.world)

Really enjoying roasting my own coffee these last several months. I got tired of inconsistent, too dark batches when I was ordering light and medium roasts from Fresh Roasted Coffee.

I roast stovetop, using a stainless steel popcorn popper, this one for anybody interested.

Took the photos just after roasting, they’ll lighten up a bit more as they cool and gas off, from past experience.

Beans now a few hours after roasting (original pic was right after I finished cooking them), you can see the coloration evens out as they fully cool down and sit for a while. These will be drinkable immediately, but best in 2-3 days.
