Starting The Roast

Now that everything is together, you should plug your "roaster" in and pour your beans in. You should immediately begin stirring the coffee beans.

As you are stirring, you will notice the coffee beans turn from a green to a light brown and will continually darken. Also part of the bean called chaff will begin blowing off the bean. Keep stirring until the beans move on their own in an upward direction(not just in a circular one). This will take about a minute. At this time, you will hear a series of small "cracking" noises. This is what is known as the first crack. This will soon subside.

Pour coffee.
