Deciding on which coffee roaster to buy in the beginning is one of those daunting tasks that you pour over for hours. Roasters are not cheap by any means especially if you want a quality machine. I have roasted on and seen quite a few home roasters and, although unique in their own way, the old saying still holds true. “You will get what you pay for.”
I truly hope this video helps and I will be diving deeper into different avenues of roasting and roasters as we go down this journey. This topic is one of my most asked questions so I figured it was a good time to finally address it.
