Pre-blend roasting versus post-blend roasting for house espresso

I want to hear real field experience about pre-blend roasting versus post-blend roasting. In theory it sounds useful, but inside daily work it also looks like one more variable to control. Some people around me say pre-blend roasting versus post-blend roasting is already becoming standard practice, while others say the result is too inconsistent to justify the extra effort.

If you have tested this seriously over repeated batches or harvest cycles, what did pre-blend roasting versus post-blend roasting change for consistency, quality, or decision making?

What helped me most was keeping short notes each time. Without notes, discussion about pre-blend roasting versus post-blend roasting becomes memory battle and not real evaluation.

For pre-blend roasting versus post-blend roasting, I only trust conclusion after I see same pattern several times. One successful run can be accident. Repetition is what make the lesson useful.

I think the bigger issue is not pre-blend roasting versus post-blend roasting itself but whether your baseline is stable. If baseline keeps moving, then every experiment around it gives mixed signal.

From my side this helped only on certain coffees, not on every lot. When the coffee is already forgiving, pre-blend roasting versus post-blend roasting does not change much. On difficult lots the effect is clearer.

I disagree a little with people who say pre-blend roasting versus post-blend roasting is only a small detail. Small detail alone maybe yes, but several small details together can move the cup a lot.
