    "Hello to anyone who cares" and "I really don't feel like making this video" is the energy, in a nutshell, of this whole dumpsterfire that is our life since the beginning of 2020. But also, thank you form making it. I'm here, I'm learning, and I strongly believe that I'll be roasting a much better batch this afternoon thanks to this video.

      Yes - I was wondering how the weird intro would go over, but glad its relatable. I feel like its hard to start things sometimes ... once i start it, it gets easier. Definitely the effect of the "dumpster fire 2020-" you talk about. thanks for understanding! -T

    This is one those video's that you stumble on occasionally that makes you say "why has it taken so long for this to appear in my 'recommended' list". A most useful and informative lesson and one I am sure will assist in my ongoing attempt to roast that perfect bean. 👍

    This is one of my all time favorite roasting tutorials. Starts out telling us how much he doesn’t want to do this and then does just an amazing presentation that is as informative as it is engaging. Loving my beans…quality, consistency…it’s just been a great companion on my journey with my HotTop. Started out with a mechanized pan roaster and the bug bit. Then I discovered these guys and that was all she wrote. Thanks again.

    Great Video, .. ok , little story before my question. 25 years ago I drove tractor trailer for a few years and one load that I delivered was of Coffee Beans in great big burlap sacks , Sumatra and some other type.. was a High Dollar delivery as they had multiple locks on the trailer were I picked it up from , and Guards watching as it got unloaded . They told me that I could not even watch and had to stay out in my truck . Sooo , when they where done , I had to pull out of their parking lot and jump up in the trailer to make sure was clean for the next load ,,, well , there was some beans left in , so I had to sweep them up ... ok , so at this point , don't get freaked out , but I saved all those Green coffee beans , ended up with about a Gallon zip lock bag full . I sorted through them making sure there was nothing else ... couple weeks later I got home and Roasted some of the beans in mom's cast iron skillet continuously moving the beans (first time doing ) didn't really know what I was doing , we didn't really have youtube and what not back then .. lol . But , after watching this I think I ended up with a half way through 2nd Crack roast ? And after cooling and sitting for a day , I used a French press and went heavy the amount as I like strong coffee (strong bold not burnt).. it was the Best Coffee I have ever had !!! Ok , my questions are best coffee for crazy deep bold smooth rich flavor and 2nd Q's is if Green Beans sealed in vacuum sealed bag with O2 remover packed .. How Long can those beans last ... years ? 2 , 5 , 10 , 20 ??? Ohhh , and this was your 1st vid I have ever watched , I am now subscribed and will be watch All the rest .. THANK YOU

      Thanks for watching! What a great story. It's hard to say, we haven't tested that, though maybe someone else has. What we can advise is that, with proper hermetic storage, green coffee can retain its flavors for even longer than a year.

    @TopOnePercentDads 2 года назад +2

    Tom is a high intellect. His way of describing brings about a sense of depth in the thought process. This is very interesting and fun to listen to. I care about what he is describing, because of the amount of care Tom has about the “how” and “why.” I didn’t know I cared about why first crack makes a louder snap to it’s crack, but because Tom cares. I know I should. Thank you for this lesson in roasting coffee. I bought some coffee from Maria’s. Can’t wait to try it.

    @deanmoriarty3565 3 года назад +10

    This awesome and I think everyone can relate to ‘I don’t feel like doing this’ feeling. Quick tip: the reason why beans look darker on camera is because you’re using a white paper as a background, so the camera is fighting with you on that. If you use a 50% grey paper (i.e. print a grey page on a laser printer and cut out the white outline with a scissor) you will get beans coloured exactly as you see in camera.

    This is the coffee roasting video I've been waiting for! I just started skillet roasting and I have so much trouble distinguishing between first and second crack - they seem to bleed into one another and to me sound so similar it's hard to distinguish between the loud, volatile crack of 1C and the more gentle rolling crackle/pop of 2C. Even though I can describe them it still seems hard to differentiate. This video helped a lot! I'll look a lot more at the visual cues next time.

    Sweet Maria's is so awesome. I stopped roasting about ten years ago and just started again this afternoon. And in the meantime Sweet Maria's hasn't changed a bit (that's a good thing). Determining roast level is sooo challenging for me. I just roasted batches of five different coffees and it's still difficult for me to characterize where each one ended up. But each one smells incredible and I can't wait for them to rest so I can grind and brew them. Thanks for making videos like this - I think this is my first in what will be an extended binge!

The natural sweetness and intense chocolatey aroma, and smoky fruit flavors that come through are just amazing. I guess I'm now a coffee hobbyist.

I feel that you may get me to my ultimate goal, and that is for someone to tell me 1. The overall goal, like a.) This must be done as fast/slow as possible. 2. Why you have decided to make an adjustment with every adjustment you make. If you are not an Engineer, you think like one.

    A roaster/tester/buyer out of madision wi has one of those sample roasters, I think his name is Victor same as my name, not sure he is alive, he was having health issues with cancer but he used to buy coffee, sell, roast sample test coffee, very interesting person.
    I am glad you did the video you are possibly the best teacher in this field imo The glasses Yeah I did the same thing last week sat on them busted one side, man I hate that when glasses get messed up.
    I sure like your diy projects as I have experimented also, in fact just tonight I was thinking what would happen if you soaked some green beans in everclear alcohol for a year, took them out and dried them for a few days then roast them? Now that's an experiment I am thinking about just for the heck of it, maybe stumble onto something good?
