FreshRoast Plus 8 Home Coffee Roaster with 1 Lb. Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Organic Green Coffee

FreshRoast Plus 8 Home Coffee Roaster with 1 Lb. Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Organic Green Coffee

The Freshroast Plus 8 features a glass chamber for a 3.5 oz. roast batch and a fast roast cycle. Ideal for a household of 1 to 2 coffee drinkers, it takes just 5-7 minutes to roast the green coffee beans with a 2 minute cool-down cycle. The Freshroast Plus has a mechanical timer and the chaff collector is simple yet effective. Because the roast chamber is smaller and the roast cycle is shorter than other home coffee roasting machines, it uses less energy to roast a batch of beans. Because of its basic design, this is the roaster that will outlast all the fancy, computer chip controlled machines out there. If you are a serious home coffee roaster, it is worth having one of these just in case your other roaster fails. Because of the mechanical timer and the fast roast time, this unit requires a little more attention to achieve your favorite roast. This is a simple matter of monitoring the bean color and aroma, then manually turning the machine to cool when the beans are perfect. Typically, in a Freshroast the beans roast a little darker on the outside and the coffees bright notes and aroma are accentuated, while deeper tones can sometimes be muted because of the fast roast time. The roast time will vary between coffee types, but results can be duplicated by recording the roast time for each type of coffee you roast. Includes a pound of our Fair Trade certified organic Ethipian Yirgacheffe green coffee.

Coffee Bean Roaster - Fresh Roast

Coffee Bean Roaster - Fresh Roast

The Fresh Roast Plus 8 home coffee roaster is the latest version of this popular model, with a new timer that goes to 8 minutes and a slightly slower roast profile for more body. The Fresh Roast series has been the starter roaster for many because of its entry level price tag, but don?t let the price fool you - this machine can perform, producing a quality roast. The roast capacity is approximately 3 oz of green coffee beans, yielding enough to brew 12-14 cups of coffee. As a fluid bed (hot air) roaster, the roast cycle is fairly short, yielding a brighter flavor than a drum roaster. This is great for accentuating the differences between different coffee varietals. The machine operates relatively quietly for a hot air roaster and is very simple to use. Fill the beans and turn the dial and in about 6 minutes for an average roast, the beans will start cooling. There are no difficult setting to program. There are two variables you can vary when experimenting with your roasts if you are so inclined: the amount of green beans you put in the roaster and the amount of time you set the roaster for. While we do recommend playing with these variables some, keep in mind, even a less than ideal roast will typically produce coffee that is far superior to any coffee commonly available on the market today. The reason why ? most coffee you can purchase is already stale. Experts recommend using coffee beans within 2 to maybe 3 weeks after roasting for best flavor. After that period, the flavor starts degrading quickly. Ground coffee goes stale even quicker since more surface of the coffee is exposed to air. Green coffee beans in their un-roasted form can be stored for up to 2 years. The coffee does not rapidly go stale until after it is roasted. Plus you save money too since green coffee beans are typically much less expensive than roasted. Just think of the convenience too ? buy green beans in bulk since they can be stored for a while and only roast when you need more bea
