The SCAE Awards for Coffee Excellence (#)
„The oldest in age and young in spirit Hanspeter Hagen is the most respected speciality coffee person in Germany - he does not keep the good news of cup quality for himself but spreads the gospel. His Roastery-cum-Kaffeehaus in an old transformed factory in Heilbronn is not only the adored destination for true coffee enthusiasts but as well a proof that the success in speciality coffee depends only on the person who embodies the spirit of speciality coffee and not the demographic infrastructure of the business location. Hanspeter Hagen - a great combination of perseverance and innovation in quality coffee.“

„I have a Fresh roast plus 8 .If you have a decent exhaust fan in your kitchen you may get away with the FR+8. It does produce some smoke but you may also want to open a window if nearby.“

Coffee Roasts: Notes from a Non-Roaster (INeedCoffee.com)
„The Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA), in an effort to add some uniformity to the industry, has put out a roast color chart. But that doesn't affect the brand new roaster who knows what they used to drink in a little Café in France and starts roasting a medium dark French Roast, nor does it affect the old time family-owned roaster who never even heard of the SCAA. If they have a coffee that has been their Italian Roast for 50 years, then it doesn't matter if the proper name of said roast on the SCAA chart is French or Viennese or Full City or whatever, it's still Italian Roast to them. So the confusion isn't likely to dissipate soon.“

How to Stereotype Roasters (INeedCoffee.com)
„Even if you plan to grind at home, use this test to stereotype the quality of the entire coffee operation. Same Style Of Roasting Does every coffee bean at the roaster look like French roast? A skilled roaster will know that every crop has a sweet spot; some beans are best when roasted lighter and some best when roasted dark. A Colombian may excel at a Vienna Roast, but roasting Ethiopian Yirgacheffe that dark is a crime.“

View topic - Origin of the word "Espresso" - Coffee Forum
„Contrary to public misconception, the espresso process does not create a higher caffine drink. However, the other half of coffee production is the roasting. The Espresso Roast and French Roast bring more oils (and flavor) out in the beans. The roasting process, in turn, impacts the caffine content.“

„Thanks for the advice - I think I'll go for postal ordering then. Apparently there's a roastery in Lincoln somewhere, does anyone know anything about them? Might be worth a trip if so as I am often over that way.“
