Hey there Redrocker! I have not ever enjoyed a coffee from Burntbuck's. Their coffee has always been burnt, bitter, and acidic. Those descriptions, I believe, are their flavors... LoL 😂. Now you are roasting your own, you will see how much more "love" my coffee, means. Personal preference for...

LMAO @pshankstar !! You're still a pup!! You even 40 yet???? I have not found that changing my preheats helps any one bean more than another. It will change your roast times and put a variable of how the bean's progression occurs. I have mostly stuck to batch size, when changing preheats. The...

Awesome @major JC. Good to hear your first roasting session turned out so good. You have a lot of fantastic coffee tastings in your future! Definitely try the coffees you roast at different finishing levels, meaning some light (city) and then some darker levels (city+, city++). That is with...

Don't listen to Day_Tripper!!! No trap....no trap at all!!! Bwaaa ha haaaaa!!!! Maybe look into doing a cold brewed coffee addition would be my suggestion.

Haven't been on in a bit.... I'm done with that nasty 4 letter word beginning with W and ending in k, and just kinda hanging out, since the middle of October. Have done a lot of things around the place that I just never seemed to have the time for. Any who, here's coffee updates.... Oct. 24th I...

I have not saved for a new laptop yet, as my vehicles are seemingly in need of some extra love. I have, however, continued to roast some more coffee. Started early here, as it sure is a steamer out there, and in my roast shed. I was able to roast, let's call it even at, 27 pounds. 242.42 + 27 =...

My computer that I use quit connecting to anything. The wifi chip is AFU! So no screen shots. You'll have to believe me with how much coffee I roasted, until I save up enough for a new laptop. Not gonna post all the different coffees, just the pounds. 36.55 pounds from June 4th to present...

I stand corrected...on lime to drop pH in soil. It does raise it. Brain fart moment. Sulfur is best. No joke about the nitrogen though.

You can top dress around your hops with fast acting lime to drop your ph. Hops are voracious nitrogen eaters, especially early in the season. Would not hurt to drop some straight up nitrogen fertilizer on them....like 28-0-0.

Like you pulled the trigger!!! Hate that you have to worry about others wanting it more than you. Hate even more the folks low enough to want to take it!!

Nothing wrong about a little pork porn on a Saturday afternoon! Smothered with prepared mustard, then topped with my own mix of brown sugar, paprika, red pepper, black pepper, garlic, sweet paprika, and some adobo. Slow smoked for 16 hours to an internal temp of 203 degrees. Now all wrapped and...

Started this Saturday night around 8, and pulled it at Sunday morning at 8. It is a 17.5 pound Turkey. White meat is a touch dry, but we smoked it on the premise of making turkey salad, so it will actually be just fine, but the dark meat is nice and juicy! The flavor is the combination of...

@MaxStout, when I first started and was doing the bowl/heat gun, I tried not to change distance from gun to bean, but I did change temperature settings. That was fairly easy as the heat gun was a digital model, and dropping temps was just a push of the button. Sounds like you should be on the...

@HarborTownBrewing, I originally got it for dual purposes.... to save the life of my countertop grinder and save me from the time it took to grind 5 pounds for doing cold brew batches. There has only been 1 person that I have ground coffee for, and believe it or not, the coffee was Kopi Luwac. I...

Yes I did buy a commercial grinder. It happens to be the very popular Bunn model. G3 version I think they call it. Just meaning it'll hold 3 pounds of beans in the hopper. The flat burrs it has installed are stock, and still have years of service life left on them. It does a phenomenal job at...

comes up to 8,556 grams = 18.86 pounds total for group = 40.74 lb

Hey everyone! Happy New Year to all!! Like your roasting timer pshankstar!! Happy to see some new faces!!! I have roasted 0 pounds of coffee so far this year! That'll change very soon, as I'm almost out...
