Our classroom has been closed a year! And it's been hard to get it together with some online info. Thompson cranked out this little session though, geared toward the home roaster who can't get enough info about the changes in the coffee bean during first and second crack. Unfortunately the roaster is a bit noisy in the middle parts, but there is a lot of little nuggets of information in this presentation of nearly 35 minutes!

"Hello to anyone who cares" and "I really don't feel like making this video" is the energy, in a nutshell, of this whole dumpsterfire that is our life since the beginning of 2020. But also, thank you form making it. I'm here, I'm learning, and I strongly believe that I'll be roasting a much better batch this afternoon thanks to this video.

Yes - I was wondering how the weird intro would go over, but glad its relatable. I feel like its hard to start things sometimes ... once i start it, it gets easier. Definitely the effect of the "dumpster fire 2020-" you talk about. thanks for understanding! -T

This is one of my all time favorite roasting tutorials. Starts out telling us how much he doesn’t want to do this and then does just an amazing presentation that is as informative as it is engaging. Loving my beans…quality, consistency…it’s just been a great companion on my journey with my HotTop. Started out with a mechanized pan roaster and the bug bit. Then I discovered these guys and that was all she wrote. Thanks again.

Tom is a high intellect. His way of describing brings about a sense of depth in the thought process. This is very interesting and fun to listen to. I care about what he is describing, because of the amount of care Tom has about the “how” and “why.” I didn’t know I cared about why first crack makes a louder snap to it’s crack, but because Tom cares. I know I should. Thank you for this lesson in roasting coffee. I bought some coffee from Maria’s. Can’t wait to try it.

@deanmoriarty3565 3 жыл бұрын

This awesome and I think everyone can relate to ‘I don’t feel like doing this’ feeling. Quick tip: the reason why beans look darker on camera is because you’re using a white paper as a background, so the camera is fighting with you on that. If you use a 50% grey paper (i.e. print a grey page on a laser printer and cut out the white outline with a scissor) you will get beans coloured exactly as you see in camera.

I've been using the same $130 (at the time) coffee roaster for 2 years, and I'm so glad I bought it. It's worked great. I roast as much as a pound a time, and I can see what the beans are doing so well. I don't know what style roaster it is but it's the kind that looks like a crockpot.

This is the coffee roasting video I've been waiting for! I just started skillet roasting and I have so much trouble distinguishing between first and second crack - they seem to bleed into one another and to me sound so similar it's hard to distinguish between the loud, volatile crack of 1C and the more gentle rolling crackle/pop of 2C. Even though I can describe them it still seems hard to differentiate. This video helped a lot! I'll look a lot more at the visual cues next time.

Sweet Maria's is so awesome. I stopped roasting about ten years ago and just started again this afternoon. And in the meantime Sweet Maria's hasn't changed a bit (that's a good thing). Determining roast level is sooo challenging for me. I just roasted batches of five different coffees and it's still difficult for me to characterize where each one ended up. But each one smells incredible and I can't wait for them to rest so I can grind and brew them. Thanks for making videos like this - I think this is my first in what will be an extended binge!

The natural sweetness and intense chocolatey aroma, and smoky fruit flavors that come through are just amazing. I guess I'm now a coffee hobbyist. Can't wait to order more of your beans, is there a particular selection you would personally recommend for an espresso aficionado/rookie coffee hobbyist like myself?
