Early Morning Coffee Roasting

My alarm went off at 5 AM and I realized that I did not have any fresh roasted coffee to enjoy after my morning run up Mission Peak. I had 15 minutes to get all my running gear ready before I headed out the door.

I place 1/2 cup of green coffee beans in my Original Poppery Roaster and got busy! Within 6 minutes I was hearing the first crack! It smelled so good. The smoke aroma of fresh roasted coffee permeated the air. The noise probably woke my neighbors up too! I have priorities-life without coffee is no good. Besides, they needed to wake up too.

I roasted my final stash of green Rwanda coffee beans. It has the sharp slightly tangy taste like Kenya. I just brewed a fresh pot of French press Rwanda coffee for my wife and myself. We are drinking them out of our stainless coffee tumblers. It tastes so heavenly!

If you are not roasting coffee yet, do yourself a favor and just give it a try. It's no harder than micro waving your dinner-takes less time too! Read Home Coffee Roasting, : Romance and Revival.
