Amazon.com: Books: Kitchen Life : Real Food for Real Families--Even Yours! (#)

„His Kitchen Life aims to "hand readers the keys to the cooking kingdom so that preparing a meal is never a chore, but is instead a pleasure." To do so, he offers self-help and 130-plus recipes meant to fit the lives of the busy cooks with hungry families. The book's formula involves, for example, offering letters from "real people" whose kitchen distress Smith feels and then "relieves" via suggestions like "cooking at home takes a little planning but doesn't have to take much effort." But he also provides solid strategies and insights, notably in sections called "My Best Supermarket Tips" (know how produce is priced to avoid ever-creeping expense, he advises); "Eating Right" (for healthy eating, home portion control is basic); and "Different Ways of Cooking" (identify cooking methods like sautéing or roasting with which you're most comfortable). Smith also offers thoroughly useful recipes, such as Barbecued Ribs and Slaw Sandwiches; Tuna Casserole with Bow Ties, Mushrooms, and Parmesan; and Apple Cranberry Pudding, all scaled to what the average busy cook can deliver. His formulas will also help cooks to establish an everyday repertoire while encouraging more confident cooking to come.“

Amazon.com: Books: Home Coffee Roasting: Romance & Revival (#)

„Coffee addicts who have already traded up to the latest bean grinders and brewing machines now have a new frontier to conquer: roasting their own beans. Davids' updated edition of his earlier work addresses the technological advances that have made home roasting even more accessible. After surveying the history of coffee roasting and the machinery invented for that purpose, Davids scrutinizes the world's coffees, comparing their varietal characteristics so that home roasters can anticipate which beans will produce coffees that best suit their tastes. His quick guide to home roasting methods clearly delineates the advantages and disadvantages of each alternative, from the most expensive home roasting machines to simple stove-top and microwave oven techniques.“

„“After going through their selection criteria, we typically start providing them with sample roasts.” Ephraim explained the next part in the process his company goes through when a prospective client contacts them. “We have a roasting facility here in Chicago, so they would send us a quantity of their green coffee and we would roast it to their specifications, using a number of different roast profiles. After we return those samples to them, then they evaluate those samples on a blind testing basis, and then get back to us on the most desirable characteristics that they may have found based on the samples they received. At that point it becomes a matter of specifications, such as what is best for their needs in terms of capacities, what’s best for their needs in terms of control for the roasting process, what’s best for their needs in terms of fitting into their current facility.”“

Home Espresso FAQ (#)

„Espresso is horribly over-extracted at that point. No wonder your guests squish up their faces when they sip your "expresso."     There is an astounding number of diverse ways in which the variables of roasting style and degree of roast, blends of single source or varietal beans, freshness and quality of the beans, grind, volume of dose, tamping pressure and accuracy, water temperature, water delivery pressure, water quality and softness, length of pour, and even relative humidity can conspire to botch our espresso. The home enthusiast has little or no control over most of these factors but she can learn to compensate so that every shot is as close to perfetto as possible.. Learning how to cope with these myriad obstacles and the peculiarities of your chosen machine will eventually allow you to produce, upon demand, in your own kitchen, spectacularly rich and flavorful espresso.“

„Mike Sivetz (retired General Foods Chemist) made a huge contribution to demonstrate you can roast in small batches with hand made simple heating and ventilating parts that can make better coffee than his ex-employer General Foods, and he was right. Mike proved that fluidized roasting could make it so simple that anybody could learn to roast and roast great quality. Neotec in Germany was on the same page and they proved you could use this same fluidized process to go for really big poundage and do it with repeated control so the industry began changing. The real happening was the gourmet people were able to get into the picture and where people could buy from the big guys if they wanted or they could buy from their corner roaster much like they bought cheese from the local cheese shop instead of having only to rely on the plastic wrapped stuff in the major supermarkets.”“

:: Roast It Right :: (#)

„"Simplistically it's all to do with Roast Height - a function of time and temperature designed to alter the chemistry of the green bean and give the espresso the character we all know." It is essential, apparently, that the roast should not be rushed as this can lead to a harsh and bitter tasting coffee, regardless of the temperature. Roasting has to be undertaken at a pedestrian pace, monitoring the final roast height of the beans with the utmost care as it is this which will determine the flavour of your espresso. The final roast height will very much be determined by the origins that are being used and the type of market into which the beans will be sold. For instance, roast heights in Italy increase the further south you move, as does the blend composition with robusta being more prevalent in the southern regions.“

„I know it is important to be consistent, but each day tends to suggest its own natural organization. The roasting process is like a dance, and I must follow a defined series of steps: measuring the coffee, loading it into the roaster, adjusting the temperatures, dropping the coffee into the cooling tray, and then, as soon as it cools, blending it with the other roasted coffees. Introducing the new coffee to the already blended coffees has become somewhat of a ritual for me. I have a tendency to be ceremonial, and when I merge the new roast with the awaiting coffees, I always stir a few times this way--then that--finally putting down the mixing container until the next batch is ready.“

Tea & Coffee 06/02 - Man or Machine: Who’s the Better Roastmaster? (#)

„The argument for the first system is that a computer will always be more consistent than a human operator. Those arguing to keep the human roaster employed say that an experienced roastmaster can always achieve a better result because no two lots of coffee are the same, that coffee changes every day, and the roasting environment does as well, from day to day and hour to hour. Some changes in the roasting environment are still too subtle for computers and today’s measurement systems to detect - nothing can replace a dedicated, passionate roaster who is deeply concerned about the final result. That person will bring all their senses and experience to bear to bring out the best in each roast while still hewing to the company’s preferred roast stile.“

„However, freezing (and especially the thawing and refreezing that can occur when taking the beans in and out of the freezer every day) increases the likelihood that moisture will creep into the porous bean and the quality of the coffee will deteriorate. In addition, the flavor "oils" (which are not really oils at all, but a mixture of soluble and insoluble elements) that form on the outside of the beans during roasting will flake off because extreme temperature changes deteriorate bean structure (similar to how sidewalks crack as a result of moisture seepage and temperature change or the undesirable taste that ice cream gets when it's thawed and refrozen). The key: don't let the coffee become thawed. Quickly grind the portion you need and return the beans to the freezer.“

Roasters that are the size I am feel they know what they need to but when they ask questions of each other, nine times out of ten the answer is ‘I don’t know.’ At some point it would be nice to answer questions like ‘I’d like to know more about pyrolisis.’ The roaster’s guild will probably never have a lot of money of its own but perhaps it will be able to influence how some money is spent.”“

„Severe damage occursto the cell walls of the matrix at distributed temperatures above 446 degreesF and bean surface temperatures over 536 degrees F The actual temperaturevalues will change due to varying levels of other constituents. Secondcrack, associated with darker roasts, is the fracturing of this matrix,possibly associated with the volatilization of lignin and other aromatics.Under controlled roasting conditions, the bean environment temperatureshould never exceed 536 degrees F. A wider safety margin would be achievedby limiting the maximum environment temperature to 520 degrees F. Thesetemperature limits minimize damage to the cell matrix and enhances cupcomplexity, roasting yield, and product shelf life.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide (#)

„The range of coffees these companies offer to consumers is, indeed, wide. The roasting in general appeared excellent, although in two cases I saw and tasted some evidence of scorched beans. Overall, however, the roasting was better and more sensitive than the roasting from larger bricks-and-mortar roasting companies, perhaps because these companies roast smaller volumes of beans per batch than larger roasting companies. Just as it is easier to steer a rowboat than an ocean liner, it is much easier to roast smaller batches of coffee than large.“

„Back to top Is SENSEO® coffee only ground or freeze dried as well? SENSEO® coffee, after roasting, is only ground. To keep the coffee as fresh as possible after roasting, it is packaged quickly after grinding in a protective atmosphere, locking out oxygen as much as possible, as oxygen ages the coffee. Back to top Is the SENSEO® coffee wet or dry roasted? The majority of the blend consists of a so-called wet roast, 'washed Arabica', where water was used to remove the bean from the coffee cherry. Back to top How are the SENSEO® coffee bags made to ensure freshness? The SENSEO® coffee packaging is made of plastic with a very thin layer of aluminum to provide a good barrier to oxygen.“

„This decline has been caused by two factors. First, the coffee roasting and retail industries have made profits by developing new products and by taking advantage of various value-adding activities, such as marketing, branding, differentiation, and flavoring. As an example, the recent expansion of demand for soluble coffee, which is among the most profitable parts of the business, has enabled the industry to capture increased value from less expensive raw materials, such as robusta coffees. Second, the noncoffee components included in the retail price of coffee, such as wages, packaging, and marketing, have grown and now represent a much more significant share of the total retail price than the actual coffee itself.“

„The smoke produced by roasting coffee is another matter.

No home roasting machine is completely successful in containing roasting smoke, although the Zach & Dani's Gourmet Coffee Roaster described on a preceding page comes closest. Consequently, it is always best to use your home roasting device either under a kitchen exhaust fan or out-of-doors on a patio or verandah.“

I didn`t expect their grinder to have the same calibration as another Ditting, of course, but the variability in the product suggested extremely worn burrs which makes no sense for a dedicated business that _only_ sells roast coffee.

Roasting (#)

„In its natural state, a coffee bean has plenty of caffeine, protein, acids, water and sugar but very little flavour, and needs to be roasted.  During the roasting process, its interior reaches about 400ºF, upon which it produces the aromatic oils that give coffee its unique flavour and aroma.  Roasting is a precise skill, however; insufficient roasting fails to fully extract the oils, but excess roasting can see them burnt away entirely.“

„The length of time, as well as temperature of the roast, are crucial in producing a quality cup of coffee, as well as determining which characteristics will be emphasized or muted. If roasting is too short, the oils won't be brought to the surface and the coffee will have a nutty flavor and lack consistency. Dark roasted beans contain less acid, have slightly less caffeine than lighter roasted beans and have a shorter shelf life, due to the amount of oils on the surface. In darker roasts, it is the roast's smoky, pungent, burnt taste that dominates overtaking the bean's natural flavor.“

How To Store Coffee - National Coffee Association (#)

„It is wise to purchase coffee in amounts proportionate to how quickly it will used.  Coffee begins to lose its freshness almost immediately after roasting so it is far better to purchase it in smaller quantities.  Purchase freshly roasted coffee frequently and buy only what you will use in the next 1 or 2 weeks. And because exposure to air is your coffee's worst enemy, it is a good idea to divide your coffee supply into several smaller portions, keeping the larger, unused portion in an air-tight container. “

„Coffee has a much higher total in-vitro antioxidant activity than other commonly consumed beverages. This is due in part to intrinsic compounds of coffee such as chlorogenic acid, in part to compounds formed during coffee bean roasting such as melanoidins and in part to as yet unidentified compounds. It is widely believed that antioxidants protect against the development of chronic diseases including heart disease and cancer but whether the antioxidants characteristic of coffee have such effects remains to be determined“

„How to tasteThe aroma of coffee comes from the volatile substances that are released during the roasting process as a result of a series of chemical reactions that take place within the bean. These transformations are known collectively as the Maillard reaction, after the French chemist who was the first to study and classify this process. These changes begin at a temperature of about 160ºC and continue to occur until the roasting process is interrupted.“
