Roast Your Own Coffeeby Ryan Jacobs Page 1 | Page 2 | Page 3 | Page 4 | Page 5 The Cooling ProcessThe main objective of the cooling process is to stop the roasting dead in its tracks as fast as possible. Simply dump the coffee beans into your cooling pan which will allow the beans to lie in a single layer. Using a pan with holes, such as a metal colander, will aid this. If you desire, you can use a light mist of water from a spray bottle. This will indeed cool the beans but you run the risk of using too much water which will serve to stale the beans faster.
Once the roasted coffee beans have cooled, they should be stored properly in an airtight container.
ConclusionOnce you've assembled the tools, you will find roasting your own coffee from home as easy as boiling eggs. Grab that popcorn popper and start roasting! FYI: Once you've roasted coffee beans in the popper, use something else for your popcorn. |
