Love watching you roast man. Keep ‘em coming

[@bspark119]

Do you ever cup later after degassing etc, say a week later? Do you find this would make much difference?

[@MillCityRoastersMN]

Always! - and it makes a huge difference!

@@MillCityRoastersMN Awesome - I imagine you wouldn't pick up on a lot of the vibrabcy in the cup you describe if you tasted straight away. Being able to wait and be patient after a roast further highlights the level of skill required by a roaster like yourself! Keep up the great work :)

How do you hit 5 min vs 5:30 at first stage? yellow to Brown stage? seems like 30 seconds is subjective

[@MillCityRoastersMN]

Scent change.

If there is a equivalent of a spirit animal in coffee, you're one of them Derek! 🔥

What was the weight loss? This is one more metric I always use as part of keeping consistent .

[@vineshbissoon1310]

Good presentation..at what RoR would you regard the coffee to be baking and slowing too much

[@vineshbissoon1310]

More so at midphase .pre crack

[@MillCityRoastersMN]

Most of the "baked ROR" discussion is confirmation bias run wild. Baking is a stalled roast and usually happens only at a negative ROR. Successful roasts have enough controlled inner heat momentum that the outer bean temp can sustain a couple of a degrees temperature variance in ROR without defect. Our roasters are stable enough to make that thermal momentum more predictable and more repeatable. This allows operators to worry less about machine control and more about coffee quality.

How do you shorten your mid phase when your gas is maxed already? How can you boost effiency?

[@MillCityRoastersMN]

Lower your batch size or get more gas.
