It's All About Coffee (#)
„Consumers want plump, rich-coloured beans. So Hernández and his team used cameras linked to a computer to take snapshots of roasting beans every 20 seconds. A neural network then analysed each picture and learned to predict which roasting times and temperatures produced the best-looking beans. Hernández hopes the results can be converted into simple colour and size charts that less skilled operators can use.“

Why Home Roast? (INeedCoffee.com)
„There are websites, newsgroups and books dedicated to homeroasting. Of particular interest is the Home Coffee Roasting Mailing List at Sweet Maria's .

„A skilled coffee roaster knows exactly what a given roast profile will do to the taste of coffee. Try to connect with some local "artisan" roasting companies. The purpose is to receive (free) training on their roasting machines in exchange for help with packaging the coffee, cleaning and/or repair work.“

„"Coffee roasting is an art form, is it not?" Darn straight it is! But think on this: As a coffee roaster, you are not trying to create an original piece of work with each roast. In fact, just the opposite.“

„Italians come in here and tell me 'this is the best coffee I've had in the U.S.' That feels great. I come to work to roast coffee and to do it the best I can. Roasting is a love."“
