Roasting coffee beans at home

Apparently, an air popcorn popper makes a decent home roaster for coffee beans. We'll try it out.

On Sep 5, 2013, we received our first shipment of green coffee beans from Sweet Maria's.

• El Salvador Finca Matalapa Bourbon
  • Outside Finca Matalapa
  • Arrival date June 2013 Arrival
  • Appearance .0d/300gr, 16 - 18 Screen
  • Grade SHB/EP
  • Processing Wet Process (Washed)
  • Region La Libertad District
  • Varietal(s) Bourbon
  • Intensity/Prime attribute Medium intensity / Malic fruits, mild citrus, cocoa
    RoastThis coffee does great in the City+ to Full City range, but will hold up to Full City+ as well.
  • The cup tastes of fresh caramel and almond, and with a subtle bittering cocoa quality. Complexity builds in the cooling cup, and notes of apple, pear, and mild citrus 'pop'. Layered chocolate notes are dominant in darker roasts, while still retaining aspects of malic fruit. This is such a great option for a "classic", SO espresso.
