Coffee Roasting Log, Bhmor 1600, 15th March, 2010

Bean:: coffee snob, "Decaf Wow"
Weight: 500gm
Weight roasted:: 420gm
Ambient temp :: 20.9c
Weight Profile ::1 pound
Profile :: P2 "c"
Time :: 21.30s
First Crack:: 6.10s
Rolling Crack::??s
Second crack 2.55s
Cool down:: 2.00 Happening into the cool down.

Grading, sweet maria:: 10-11 City+
Notes: The is the first large amount of decaf that I've roasted. Really hard to hear a second crack. The other thing I expected was a quicker roast which didn't happen.

I'm probably going to try a different decaf next time. There isn't enough information from coffee snobs about the bean or where it is from.


Taste will tell!

Weight: 250gm
Weight roasted:: 215gm
Ambient temp :: 18.1C
Profile :: P2 "a"
Time :: 1200
First Crack:: 1.38
Rolling Crack:: 1.17
Second Crack:: 5s
Cool down:: 0.00
Grading, sweet maria:: 11 full city
Notes:: In a difficult situation here because I've only 500gm of this one so I'm going to half it in case a dud roast. So looking for between. 4.50s and 1.15 entering the 2nd profile. Well I blew that. Next time I'll do profile 'b'.
A lot more chaff than usuall. Also a lot more variety in bean size.

Taste will tell...

Notes:: Based this off the latest decaf wow" and compensated because it wasn't decaf." I got the 1C in that 2nd profile.
Suprised that the roast wasnt darker. That maybe due to the heat been lowered in the second profile. A lot of chaff with this one. Looks good!
