Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment do you need to roast coffee in an unmodified bread machine?

FAQ: Bread Machine/Heat Gun Roasting
You will need a bread machine, a heat gun, a fan or other cooling device, a pot-holder or heat resistant mitt for lifting the bread pan out of the bread machine housing, a colander or wire basket in which to dump the beans, and a fire extinguisher (just in case). This is an outdoor activity. Roasting coffee produces lots of smoke and lots of blowing (and sometimes glowing) chaff. Do not do this indoors.

Can any bread maker be used to roast coffee?

FAQ: Bread Machine/Heat Gun Roasting
There are a few things you want to watch for when choosing a bread machine to use as a coffee roaster. You want an all metal stirring assembly and you want the bottom of the pan to be solid. Some bread machines have plastic pieces holding the stirring thing-a-ma-bob in place, and the heat gun could melt the plastic. Do not use any bread machine that has a plastic stirring assembly or if the receptacle in which the pan sits is plastic, rather than metal.

Can I roast coffee at home?

Merchants of Green Coffee : All About Coffee
Yes, home roasting was common place in many parts of the world up until the 1950's. Green beans can be roasted in three ways: (1) in the oven on a cookie sheet at 450?F/ 230?C for 12 to 15 minutes; (2) on the stove top in a pan at medium heat for 5 to 10 minutes; and (3) in an electric home coffee roasting appliance. In methods 1 and 2, the beans must be continuously stirred or shaken to prevent burning.

Roast only what you can use within a week. Store the roasted whole bean then grind only enough beans to use just before you prepare your coffee. Each roaster will roast a different amount of beans so you may roast more frequently depending on your choice.

What cycle do you use to roast coffee?

FAQ: Bread Machine/Heat Gun Roasting
You use the dough cycle. All bread machines seem to have one. And if your machine is designed to produce a 2 pound loaf of bread, there should be more than enough time on the dough cycle to roast your coffee. If you use a bread machine with a short dough cycle (fewer than 20 minutes or so), try stopping the machine at 5 or 6 minutes, well before first crack, for a few seconds. The cycle should reset, and then you can start again.

Can I make sourdough in my bread machine?

The Blue Room FAQ
Probably not, since most bread machines depend on the more predictable rising schedule of commercial yeast. However, your bread machine is an excellent way to mix and knead the dough. A friendly reminder: Sourdough is a closed email topic. These are general baking issues rather than issues with sourdough, specifically; consult your favorite book on bread-bakery (or consult a baker friend who can visit your kitchen and see what you're doing and recommend changes).

What is the best coffee roast?

Frequently Asked Questions
The manner in which a coffee is roasted can bring out the complexity of flavors, or obscure them. Lighter roasts enhance the acidity and varietal characteristics of a coffee, giving a bright clear taste. As the roast darkens, the body becomes fuller, and only the most distinct varietal characteristics remain; for the best coffees, this results in a complex and pleasing taste. At the darkest roasts, the coffee takes on a full bodied bittersweet richness.

Do I need to parboil my potatoes before I roast them?

Potato Lovers – Serving up perfection
To produce roast potatoes that have light crispy outside then you do need to parboil them. When draining the potatoes a good shake of the colander will roughen up the potatoes which will then produce the crispy outside when roasted. Juliette and Anya potatoes however can be roasted without parboiling first although parboiling will help the potatoes keep their firm moist texture.
