If you need to add sugar to coffee then you don't like coffee. Starbucks is for fat people who want to eat candy without feeling like a child. You may as well go to baskin robbins and stuff your face with ice cream.

[@R0B0562]

@@crcaccounts Big assumption there buddy. I don't buy starbucks, and I drink coffee both ways, black and with sugar or creamer. You're right, too much sugar does take away from the taste and can lead to some really bad healthy consequences. Thank goodness I'm skinny and a cross country runner, I would be in terrible danger.

What's your favorite coffee roast? I found the medium roast (or city roast) to be my favorite of the ones I sampled.

[@zankeist]

In my country there is only the Dark one, and I think that's why our coffee cups are so small compared to USA. We usually say that americans like to drink tea with coffee flavor, not real coffee. haha

[@Gitaristification]

+Ikaro Zankeist that is why they invented "Americano". You are right, tea with coffee flavor )

[@bodeine454]

I've been drinking coffee for about 30 years and I still don't consider myself a coffee expert by any means but I've tried a few. I used to have an electric grinder for store bought coffee beans and now I just have an old antique hand crank coffee grinder (kind of a pain to use). I'm not really the Starbucks coffee drinker type although I have had some pretty good coffee there, and I'm not really the Dunkin Donuts type either. My favorite pre-ground store bought coffee is called "Chock Full o' Nuts" original roast. It's an original medium roast coffee started in Brooklyn, NY in 1932. I also like a lot of the Columbian blends as well. I'm just starting to learn about home roasting and that's right down my alley...I just need to get a few things to get started. Some green coffee beans and a burr grinder to start! Thanks for the video!

[@kikyoustorm]

[@aarondewoskin7469]

I love the comments more than the video. Clearly coffee aficionados are clever people.

[@benjaminredbull21]

"You cannot make a flavor that is not there". "So roasting is pretty important"? Wrong, he was stating that the growing process is the most important part.

[@kit2799]

Benamight Redbulla well it can go both ways. Making coffee with non roasted beans I don't think would taste that good. Badly grown beans would also taste pretty bad.

[@Coffeeloversmag]

I feel like the whole conversation in the video is a little misplaced. The point of roasting coffee (the very important point) is to make the aroma and flavor compounds water soluble so that the coffee can actually be brewed. Brewed coffee is just using water and heat to pull out the water soluble compounds which give taste to your cup (essentially) and that can't be done until the coffee is roasted past certain heat levels. The flavor you get in the cup is dependent upon how you roast the coffee (not just the level of heat you get the coffee to, but how you get that coffee there, and what happens to the flavor compounds, the acids, the oils, and the sugars in the coffee during the heating process). Roasting is like painting, and growing/processing is putting together the palate of paint/color you have to work with.

[@benjaveragua682]

I think that every part of the process of the coffee is very important, maybe someone grow perfectly, then the roast is excellent but then I do the brew in a wrong way I can make a bad coffee

[@robinson52d]

I used to go to dunn brothers in Nashville all the time just the best coffee bar none

[@myavo]

the part of the process that always seems to be missing is the "degassing" stage. How soon after roasting is it ready to be brewed? What are the procedures?

[@BaysviewPg]

Hi, I noticed that beans that roasted right after the 2nd crack tends to produce more oil on the bean surface after several days of degassed. I spoke to one of the local roaster shop, they encourage to roast the beans before the 2nd crack. One of my family members who drink americano said beans roasted at 2nd crack had lost its fruitiness, in order words, beans that roasted after 2nd crack has "no taste". Since I watched so many videos from KZbin where most people roasted beans right after the 2nd crack, what is your thoughts on this?

[@seapearl3538]

I'm using robusta coffee beans but I boiled it first after opening the package then now I'm roasting it on frying pan some of the beans turned dark green can I still grind it please help

[@Dan-ig1xe]

Medium light roast because it has high caffeine levels and still tastes good

[@nasihulwan1223]

not very smart with coffee, but do they do blends of different roasts / bean to balance out specific taste profiles ? or can that just somehow ruin the whole batch ?

[@mikmik2ification]

So hang on, do these color changes in the roast apply to all (or most) coffee beans? Bob had graphs and tables of his roasting experiments and what not, but does that only apply to that particular bean he roasts, or can it be applied to any bean? Do other people roast the same bean differently? Love the series btw, to me it's like an evolved How It's Made. Spent hours watching that show on Discovery when I was little, and it's really nice to fill that itch.

[@htme]

Thanks! The exact details of how each batch is roasted is unique to the specific type of bean. He would chart what temperatures and times would be best for each variety he roasted. However the color changes that he described should remain consistent for all beans, more or less.

[@user-me7mm7gr1p]

I like dark roast the most.

[@theonetuby]

The best quality beans in the world are saved and bought to be mostly for light roasted. If your coffee needs to be burned to taste good, you’ve got relatively cheap beans. The further you go the more you char all the flavor and acidity away. I want to taste the bean, not the roast. If you char to a crisp a piece of chicken, pork, beef and fish, they all will taste like similar burned meat. Wildly different and distinct coffees from around the world lose their unique characteristics when burned to a crisp. Dark roast can hide many defects of cheaper beans. Burning to even the first crack shouldn’t be necessary with good quality beans. Light roasted coffee also has health benefits that dark doesn’t. Light roast is life. ☕️

[@SimplyC100]

theonetuby very good illustration. Thanks for sharing

[@laura53ize]

Interesting Im fan of medium roast but i will try light roast.

[@dancinggaijin2747]

Meh, I like all types of roasts, but light roasts are often my least favourites. I like medium roast probably the best, but dark roasts have their place. As a barista, and newly-trained roaster, at Dunn Brothers Coffee (not the one Bob works at, but a franchise off of it) there are a lot of different types that can be good. For me, light roasts are generally too acidic, and thus not as pleasant.

When roasting coffee are there any animal by product such as lard, butter or any animal by product used? Just cuirous because one day a year, I go strict vegan. Which means no animal by-product. Yes even milk or butter.

[@crcaccounts]

Most coffee shops roast the hell out of their beans until there's nothing left. At this stage you can't taste the difference between high or low quality beans.

[@matheusm.santana6527]

Which is exactly why they do it. Industrilized coffee always has a very dark roast that borders on carbonated, its very bitter, this is done because they use both bad beans and good ones which would have a bad taste if it weren't completely over-roasted

[@matheusm.santana6527]

Most indistrilized coffee has a very dark, pratically carbonized, roast which has a very bitter flavor. They do this cause they don't separate the bad beans from the good ones and have to over-roast them to hide the bad flavor. Most people go their entire lifes without ever drinking coffee that has an actual coffee flavor rather than a burned one.

[@kai1363]

I do like my coffee sweet. But undeniably adding sugar to a high quality coffee ruin the taste. If you are using regular coffee then it is okay to have it however you like.

I hate that the second guy (at least, as suggested in the editing of this video) doesn't let the guest think for himself, but instead immediately begins injecting impressions into his mind.

[@Iseladore]

Sadly, passionate experts and good imagery are ineffectively portrayed by the poor editing. 'Three ways of presenting heat' - we're told only one, the burners at the side. What are the other two? At 2:40, 'now we're gonna start-' .. start what? It cuts away. Also, the sequence where you roast four different batches is way too short, I missed it in my first viewing so I had no idea what was going on with the four roasts at first.
