Great stuff as usual. I like how you mention that you do the final chaff removal 8 ounces at a time. Now that is some attention to detail! Not only do your coffees always taste spectacular but they also have the clean looks to go along with that taste. Keep up the great work and such information packed video like these. I always look forward to seeing one you're up to.
Love your content!! great, straight to the point information and just feels real lol Just curious about the roaster, first time i see the one you have. Any difference from the other common ones besides its looks?
Thanks for watching! Well, there are two main differences than 90% of other roasters out there. 1. It's a fluid bed (air) roaster, where most are drum. Traditional roasters use a drum to evenly roast the beans. This roaster forces agitation by pushing air through the bottom of the hopper. Most drum roasters have heating pads that can, at times, cause beans scorching. 2. Electric powered vs gas powered drum roasters. Our roaster uses clean air.
@nickr9784 I don't experience much tipping with my roaster. It's probably because of the slow roasting process we use. Tipping usually occurs when suddenly the heat is too hot and shocks the bean, which will cause a small crack at the top of it. Every roasting profile is different, but we're generally starting the temp between 325 - 400. The range is large because certain beans need a hotter temp at the beginning and vice versa.
Hmm, I start lower than that and still get tipping. I’d love to know more about your slow process. I’ve long wanted to try to replicate more of a drum profile on my Fluidbed
Check out some of the earlier videos where we go more in-depth into the profiles. That may help. Is it a coffee crafters roaster that you're using? I'm wondering if the loft is playing a part in your tipping? Maybe try increasing it to create more agitation.
Cool video. I enjoyed it. Glad I stumbled upon you. Hope you have great luck and keep making good content!

@@StraitCoffeeRoasters Wow thank you so much!!! I will definitely check them out. I would love to get into roasting!!
Do you experience tipping on your roaster? I have a very similar roaster and always get tipping. What is your starting temp?

how many pounds of coffee do you sell a month? DM if not public
Depends on the month, but between 60 and 80 lbs. Each month has been more.
