Re: Firestarter

I haven't used Firestarter for a while so just dusted it down today for some Kenya AA beans. Are the original settings/timings for the profile still valid now we have boost, i.e. first crack about 7:40 and the default level 3.0 will stop the roast at 20% DTR at 9:35? On a 140 gram batch I'm experien...

Help Adjusting Roast Profile

First attempt at tweaking my profiles so need some help to understand what's happening here. I tend to use the MD3 profile a lot as it suits my tastes but my batch of Laos Bolaven Plateau does not track well to the curve. I increased the zone 2 boost on the 2nd batch from -3 to -5 but the mean temp ...

Chaff Collector Delays?

Is anyone else experiencing delays with the chaff collector upgrade kit? I'm in Oz and ordered mine on 21 May and it's still not arrived! I raised a question via support on 10 June and was advised on 12 June that it would be sent that week. I've reached out twice in July, and no one is replying! Pre...

After reading the results with this profile on Costa Rica Miel I thought I would give it a try. Currently drinking as a flat white side-by-side with the MD3 profile which is my usual go to roast. I have to say I prefer the Red Honey with this bean, definitely bringing through more fruity characteris...

Re: TEST Yemen Mokha profile 100g

The other 200g is using Steve's MD3 at 3.0 which I've enjoyed before. I have at least half of my coffee with milk, so super light doesn't work for me. Just ran a side by side test of the Yemen A2 Mod and MD3 after resting the beans for 16 days. The A2 Mod has been my preferred profile with Yemen bu...

Re: Ninja Turtle

After reading all the posts about this profile I decided to run a side by side comparison on a nice blend I found on a coffee forum. The blend is 43 Ethiopia Limmu, 29 PNG Wahgi, 14 Panama Volcan Baru, 14 Monsoon Malabar Gold. Roasted on 3.5 Ninja Turtle and 3.5 1500-2000. I have to say that after 7...
