I have to echo Jordan on the wife front lol. Rob!!! You’re back! You’ve been missed. Loved this video and that new roaster looks sweet. I look forward to getting your review of it.
Haha! Yal are a trip! My wife ant letting me go until the kids get older so Yal may have to wait. Haha The Roest is a cool little unit. Super pricey but, what isn’t now days. Thanks so much for watching Dan!
Exactly! In a bad economic or political situation where things were scarce, this coffee would still be amazing in my eyes. Def made me second guess just discarding old coffee. I’m actually going to seal it back up and see if it last another year before the taste getting to funky. Thanks for watching my friend!
No problem my friend. I am starting to think it may change depending on region and process too. Something I have been thinking about today after posting this one. Thanks so much for watching buddy!
You confirmed my suspicions. My family has been farmering for generations, and coffee is an agricultural product. Seed storage is seed storage there's no difference if the seed is from an apple, corn, rice or any other agricultural product; proper seed storage is critical. Stored in sealed bags & in a controlled environment, coffee seeds will last a long time. However, once opened and exposed to the environment they may decompose more quickly.
Haha yes indeed! I always thought it would taste horrible from what everyone says but it really was not that bad. I may keep it tied up and do a follow up a year from now. I am actually curious just how long this stuff will last now. Thanks for watching my friend!
Great to hear buddy! I know it’s a ton of work so just take your time and focus on a good pace not sprinting! Best of luck to you my friend and thanks for watching! Dump out that Pepsi though! Haha
Dude, I'm coming to your house.... I've been roasting my own beans for a few years now and need some fine tuned instruction. Someone gave me a pound of Bali for Xmas this year, and I concur it's a nice drink. Waiting for my roast to age a few more days to try it on my new Breville Express.!
Did you measure the moisture levels of the green coffees? Thank you Rob for always producing content that gets people that are crazy about coffee… excited about coffee!!
Oh wow! Thanks for watching! Been a while since I was in San Diego but your on my list of shops to visit! I did not check the moisture content. I don’t have a checker yet. Working on getting one. Def would like to see how much moisture is still in the green. Best of luck to you and keep hustling!
What’s the oldest coffee you ever roasted? Let me know below and what you thought… I am actually curious about this now as it was not near as bad as what everyone said it would be..
Im just starting homeroasting, roaster is gonna be here on 12th of December. Got green beans yesterday. Made some popcorn popper roast(which worked out better than expected) I always wondered if I should just buy some largish 15-60kg bags if I like the coffee and my friends/family as well. I don't want it to spoil after time. I heard ppl that say green beans are good for 1yewr, 16 months and more, but a huge gap So this video answers this quite nicely
I am using the Shure MV7 mics. It is one of those things that the price justifies the results for sure. Saved me a few times in regards to audio. The link is below if you want to check them out. Shure MV7 Mic: amzn.to/3fakq72 Thanks for watching buddy and hope all has been well.
Interesting I have wondered how long you could go as well the oldest so far for me was a Colombian decaf that I had gotten for Mom and friends it was around two years old and since it was a small amount it had been stored in an OXO container in a dark closet and I would have to say most people would not no as I was surprised at well it roasted and how well it tasted
hmm, that's a good one with Decaf. I am surprised with that too. I think as roasters we get so caught up in thinking everyone tastes exactly like we do but the average coffee drinker like you said would not know in a blind test.
If you haven’t already, check out Christopher Feran on rehydrating past crop coffees. Oldest coffees I’ve roasted about 2 years old. I had a coffee vac sealed and frozen in the freezer for 1 1/2 years, defrosted, roasted, brewed it up…. Or was delicious. No signs of degradation.
I am going to have to look him up and check that out. Ya, this was the first I had dabbled in it and I was kind of surprised. You always hear the industry leaders preaching how bad it is but, I didn't find it that terribly bad. I think with some proper planning like you mentioned and vac sealing it could preserve for a long time. Def going to study more into it. Thanks for watching my friend!
From experience I’ve notice that as long as you keep your coffee beans sealed correctly and in the right temperature it will still be very good! I think having brand new harvest green beans is overrated 😂 So don’t throw away your old green coffee ☕️
Dude I am kind of feeling the same way after that experiment. I want to look more into this because with the new packaging methods it may not be as important as it was years back. Thanks for watching buddy!
You can create your own, roast manual, or use preprogrammed ones. For this particular one, I just used one I modified from the Roest Standard ones. I will try and touch on more of that in the next few videos. Thanks for watching buddy!
Ya, I can see that. Probably not much room for error when trying to find that sweet spot. I will say I did not see any crazy crashes or anything like I expected. I figure the graph may go all over the place but it roasted like a fairly new coffee.
I've got 65lbs of a Sumatra that's coming up on a year that I've wondered about. Same scenario never opened. I figured worse case; I'll throw it in a bourbon barrel and cross my fingers.
Slightly offended at the Coke/Pepsi comparison.. I wonder if large coffee roasters have aged backstock that could be roasted and compared. Say a fresh, 1 year, 2 year, 5 year, and 10 year bean.
Possibly. I doubt many larger roaster keeps coffee that old though. Most are usually low on “space” it seems. Def would love to try 10 year old coffee and see what it tastes like. About the coke/Pepsi… one is just better man.. haha

That was a great test, Rob, good to know the old beans can still be good....to a point. See ya down the road, big guy.
Hi Rob, that video was very informative and interesting. Thanks again.
No problem Shane! Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice looking video! I haven't gotten into checking out your newer stuff in a while. Nice job!
Thanks buddy! I’m hoping once I get the studio built out more I can keep improving on them. Truly appreciate you watching my friend!
Awesome clip-this knowledge is very relevant to current (prepping) times...especially for us coffee erm addicts!

Great video Rob. I've wondered just how long green coffee lasts if properly stored. Turns out, its a pretty long time! Thanks for the info!
No problem my friend. I am starting to think it may change depending on region and process too. Something I have been thinking about today after posting this one. Thanks so much for watching buddy!
Get on it! Enjoy the Smells and the flavors! Hope all is going as planned.

Haha just commented on FB! Yes indeed! Completely agree. Where are you from and where is the farm?
Rob answering the questions we really have over here. :)
Haha yes indeed! I always thought it would taste horrible from what everyone says but it really was not that bad. I may keep it tied up and do a follow up a year from now. I am actually curious just how long this stuff will last now. Thanks for watching my friend!
Pepsi all the way! Thanks for the video Rob. I've been busy building my brand and expanding my business. Working on a website now...
Great to hear buddy! I know it’s a ton of work so just take your time and focus on a good pace not sprinting! Best of luck to you my friend and thanks for watching! Dump out that Pepsi though! Haha
I’ve always wondered how large period of time has an impact on coffee. Great job!
Thanks buddy! Ya I was surprised. Everyone always said it would be horrible but didn’t seem to be the case. Appreciate you watching my friend!

may I ask if the bean after roasted then keep it be used after 02 years passed ?will it became poisoning or just less in taste ? tks.
2-year-old coffee would not be poisonous. It lasts for a long time. Might not taste that good but it will not harm you. Thanks for watching!
tks a lot gor yr quick response

@@RobPirieCedarOtaCoffee I agree wholeheartedly! Nice video by the way!!
Thanks buddy!
Pls can you tell if the bean after roasted still can use after 2-3 years time ? tks
How will it going when 4 years old whole green bean with the shell on.
I apologize. I do not understand the question. Happy to answer anything you have though and thanks for watching!
What's that fancy pants roaster?
The black one is the Ikawa and the cube shaped one is the Roest. Both little sample roasters. Thanks for watching buddy!
What profile do you use on the ROEST ? 😄
You can create your own, roast manual, or use preprogrammed ones. For this particular one, I just used one I modified from the Roest Standard ones. I will try and touch on more of that in the next few videos. Thanks for watching buddy!
With old green it seems you need to be really good with the roast profile it is not so forgiving
Ya, I can see that. Probably not much room for error when trying to find that sweet spot. I will say I did not see any crazy crashes or anything like I expected. I figure the graph may go all over the place but it roasted like a fairly new coffee.
I've got 65lbs of a Sumatra that's coming up on a year that I've wondered about. Same scenario never opened. I figured worse case; I'll throw it in a bourbon barrel and cross my fingers.
Magic! My wife is concerned about my man-crush on you ;)
Haha that’s hilarious! For the right amount of money my wife may cut a deal! Haha
