I’m 14 roasts into my home coffee roasting journey with the Gene Cafe and I’m starting to form something of a process. Along with a basic process I am also gaining experience with different bean types and origins. And while I’ve made zero effort understanding coffee roasting from a scientific perspective, I have started to isolate visual, audible, and aromatic cues of how the roast is progressing. The purpose of this blog post is to simply document my process and the results I’ve had with the 5 different types of beans I’ve roasted.
