Roasted coffee beans DIY

The hardest coffee-related activity is roasting your own coffee beans. When it comes to making high-quality coffee, the freshness of the beans is paramount, and we all have the experience of buying stale beans from roasters, even once, which is nothing compared to making coffee with our own roasted beans. So roast coffee beans in your own kitchen. It's worth a try.

The easiest way is to roast coffee beans in the oven. The biggest advantage of doing this is to adjust the temperature and not let the home diffuse the taste of roasted coffee. First, heat the oven to 230°C. Remember to keep air circulation between coffee beans. Don't spread the beans too thick. After roasting for about 10 minutes, observe the change of color. Then pay attention to the cracking sound of coffee beans. Check the color at all times. When the color of coffee beans is only better than the desired color, Remove them from the oven to cool, and the residual heat will keep the beans warm for 2 to 4 minutes.

Or you can buy a home oven for stove use, but preferably a traditional pan or popcorn model, with a handle to operate two vertical interference foils inside the machine that rotate the beans as they roast, available in second-hand stores or good kitchen appliance stores, where inexpensive oven thermometers are also available. When the coffee is done, remove it from the roaster and place it in a heat-resistant bowl. Place the bowl by a window or outdoors.
