jadi tadi pagi gw baru aja buang 4kg kopi karena salah roast. background ceritanya: gw lupa ganti profile waktu ganti origin. jadi gw roast Flores Bajawa pakai profile Aceh Gayo yg dark. hasilnya?...
Udah seminggu ini gue nyoba roast light untuk espresso. Alasannya karena banyak specialty shop sekarang pake light roast di espresso bar mereka dan hasilnya memang lebih kompleks di cup. Masalahnya...
gw lagi nimbang2 beli color meter buat ngukur roast level secara objektif. yg paling sering disebut sih Agtron, tp harganya... ya tau sendiri lah. pertanyaan gw buat yg udah pake: - sebeneranya lo...
jadi ceritanya kemarin gue nyeduh kopi hasil roast sendiri, terus kata temen gue yang lumayan jago cupping bilang "ini baked deh". gue langsung mati kutu karena gue kira roast gue udah oke. saya baca...
throwing this here because the topic is getting louder and my confidence is not getting better. Batch-to-batch color match can hide flavor drift when airflow is not stable forum talk makes it sound...
kemarin baru pertama kali roast natural process, selama ini gw cuma roast washed origin aja. dan ternyata... beda banget!! first crack-nya lebih "rame" dan lebih awal dari yg gw ekspektasi. terus...
not writing this like a tutorial, just honestly stuck on it. Electric roaster conversations are rising, but cup discussion still feels thin i keep hearing strong opinions, almost none of them survive...
More people around me say bean probe data is reference only, not the real truth of what the coffee experiences. I agree partly, especially after comparing different probe placements between machines...
throwing this here because the topic is getting louder and my confidence is not getting better. Carbon-sensitive roasting claims are growing faster than the proof behind them forum talk makes it...
My confusion with keeping sweetness on high-grown washed coffees is that the idea makes sense on paper, but practical execution looks much less clean. The more I ask around, the more I hear opposite...
On production days I can run the same saved profile file, same batch size, same gas notes, and still second or third batch lands different. Not huge disaster, but enough that the later cup feels...
Some cafe teams around me are talking again about roasting blend components separately instead of chasing one profile that fits all parts. It gives more control, but labor and consistency pressure go...
this one keeps coming back around me lately. Roast planning got messier once half-caf and low-caf orders entered the schedule on paper it should be cleaner than this. real batches say otherwise. one...
Seeing many roast logs lately where people say turning point is almost useless, especially on small batch and unstable weather day. I still mark it, but sometimes it only makes me chase correction...
gw punya roaster 5kg. semua orang bilang idealnya batch size 70% jadi 3.5kg. tapi jujur gw sering aja langsung isi 4-4.5kg karena ngejer output. selama ini hasilnya gak ada masalah yg keliatan. rasa...
Rainy-day production still feels different to me even when settings, gas notes, and batch size stay the same. I know ambient changes are real, but sometimes the cup shift feels bigger than the screen...
I keep finding cups with nice aroma but sweetness feels hollow after a few sips, especially on roasts where airflow is pushed harder after first crack. Are production roasters using that late airflow...
selamat sore semuanya jadi tadi pagi kejadian yang bikin saya hampir serangan jantung. lagi roasting batch ke-3, tiba2 keluar asap tipis dari arah cyclone. saya langsung stop roasting, matiin mesin...
not writing this like a tutorial, just honestly stuck on it. Some decaf lots are cupping cleaner than regular coffees and messing with my assumptions i keep hearing strong opinions, almost none of...
Jadi kemarin gw roast Andungsari natural, batch 1kg, drum roaster custom buatan sendiri. Pas keluar dari drum ternyata ada biji biji yang pinggirannya kehitaman tapi waktu dipotong tengahnya masih...
