Quote from: Cryono on November 07, 2006, 03:03:33 PMReally? How do you go about this? How did you decide on the specifications you wanted in a roast? What kind of beans do you start with?Simple. You can buy raw beans in most decent coffee shops here. Raw beans are sorted by origin. Java beans in one bag, Colombia in another etc. Java or Kenya is what I prefer. You take about 200 grams and spread them evenly over a metal plate in an air oven (an "ordinary" kitchen oven) and roast at about 240 C until they begin to "sweat" fat and other liquids. Pull the plate out, pour the beans of and let them cool down. Then grind them in an electric coffee mill. Freshly roasted and ground is the best, but the most important is that the coffee is freshly ground.

You can buy roasted Java beans in Gothenburg and an electrical mill for amout 300 SEK.
