CoffeeKid - A Home Roasting Primer
„Hearthware, happy with the small success their Gourmet model was having, developed their first 3rd generation machine - the Hearthware Precision. The brains of that roaster featured a built in roast profile following the SCAA's recommended roast cycle, and it actively controlled the air volume and heat temperatures. No more "dumb" roasters - they were getting brains now!“

Building Your Own Coffee Roaster (INeedCoffee.com)
„Now you are done and need to study how to control the heat and how to roast. You need a lot of experience to get use to your own home made roaster. Even after you get your coffee roasted, you need to let it rest for around 48-72 hours before testing the taste. So a lot of time is needed.“

„"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.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide
„But doubtless I also was reacting to the impact of varying roast strategies. Every detail of roasting impacts the final taste of the coffee - not only how "dark" the coffee is roasted but also how it is roasted - with what sort of equipment, with what intensity of air flow through the roasting chamber, with what succession of roasting temperatures, and so on. This is not to even mention the ultimate annoyance in roasting: That the same coffee roasted exactly the same way using the same computer-controlled profile may taste slightly different when roasted on two different days or even two different times of day, apparently owing to changes in ambient moisture, barometric pressure, residual heat in the roaster, and perhaps to the unexorcised ghosts of roastmasters past, perished from heat, exhaustion, and frustration.“

„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.“
