Their Cafe makes the best Cappuccinos I have had. After having tasted the magic that can created by this blend of coffee I decided to buy a couple of pounds of it myself on my way back from Vancouver. I found out later that they actually mail stuff as well. While the masterful results will be...

So i cooked my fist Pork Rib Roast tonight and it turned out amazing. Had a nice rub of Rosemary Thyme and dried mustard powder. Served with roasted vegtables and a cabernet sauce.

I normally re-humidify my beads passively, i.e. by throwing some humidified florists foam into my humidor and letting the beads absorb the moisture through the air. However, this evening my brain was obviously functioning at half-capacity, and hence I took a different approach. Here's my how...

Well I just got into home roasting and thought i'd share some pics. It's a lot of fun and the turn out is great. The coffee and espresso is really out of this world, a must try for any coffee lover is a fresh roast. I really didn't want to roast beans in a popcorn popper because I wanted to see...

I recently got an 8 pound sampler from SM. It was 1/2 regular and 1/2 decaf. When I roast the decaf I find that in the lighter roasts it has a scorched oatmeal undertaste. If I take it to Full City plus or Vienna the bad taste goes away. Anyone have similar results or is there something I am...

I am a bit upset at myself at the moment. With all the snow preventing me from doing anything this weekend and after reading a post that encouraged me to smoke some of my better cigars instead of waiting for that "special occasion" I decided to light up a cigar that I have been saving. From...

While in Buenos Aires, we were contacted for a review for Roast Magazine. The review stems from our 92 point score on Coffee Review. We will be featured in the March/April magazine for the coffee review of our El Salvador Santa Rita coffee. When we get the print copy, they promised an Adobe...

Well I finally got my beans and popper last week. So I was able to do my fist roast on Sunday. The first pic is of the Ethiopian Organic. First crack was at about 3:30 and I ended the roast at around 6:30. This second one is of a Sumatra. First crack was a little later than the Ethiopian...

So I was roasting my first set of beans, got a white westinghouse.... Called Rob...germantownrob.... he didn't answer :hn Thought I was going to die.. At least Kev - Lokii answered and held my hand... sucker was going a long time I didn't time it I know I'm bad.... went to muddy brown to black...

As Rob (RenoB) can attest to (I roast his beans for him) I hope, my roasts have been getting better. Didn't know why I was having such long roast times and why it was taking so long to hit first crack... determined that the fan I had blowing on my sc/co was on too high and was too close to...

Guys, I'm having a pig roast this coming Saturday in Blacklick. Things will probably get rolling around 4 or 5:00 and won't stop until early morning. Pig will be cooking all day and we'll have a fire in the firepit most of the night. You and your spouse/significant other are more than...

Really funny! 10 PM Eastern. I believe it will be on this weekend as well. Chloris Leachman was the BOMB!!

I have complete control now with the Hottop, I had decent control with the Behmor, so I am curious with roast profiles and what beans for which profile. I have found that ramping the heat up on a Brazil to first crack gives a different cup (that I prefer) than when I go full heat and then slow...

Come one come all. Starts at 2. Check out the store and smoke some stogies. If you haven't been before you can pretty much be sure you will be getting the best prices on top of whatever crazy sale Mike(the owner) puts on for the event. Hope to see you guys there!

Most of the coommercial roasters here seem to offer only dark roast.

Has anyone tried this yet? Description: The complex flavor suggests dark chocolate, woodsy juniper and juicy blueberry.. Holy hannah - It's like chocolate covered blueberrys in a cup..

Much better I think, or at least closer. Hopefully you guys don't mind me clogging this forum for a minute I should really be on my way to work this morning, but I couldn't resist. Preheated the roaster for 2 minutes, roasted 1 cup... 1/4 cup less then last night. This time i didn't touch the...

Something was up with the amount of time it took I think... Roasted Sumatra Mandheling from Sweet Marias SC/TO, without preheating. 1st crack at 14:00, I lifted the lid twice to stir up the beans 2nd crack at 18:57, at least I thought. I actually lifted the lid off, saw the beans weren't all...
