Re: Huehuetenango shb ep keeps overshooting profile after CC
Hi there! having a quick glance, a few things spring to mind. The PID, whilst precise and very handy, is also sometimes stupid.

Re: What to do with the roasts
Hi Utkuyzc! I'd definitely keep and cup those first few samples over a week or so. Just because they didnt follow the profile curve perfectly doesnt mean that they cant be a useful tool in honing both your tasting and roasting skills. It can be really useful to know what a flick or a crash actually ...
