On the weekend I roasted up a batch of Brazil 'toffee'. This bean heats up very fast, I really battled to keep the temp's down at the start of the roast, but managed to keep things under control with approx 11min FC, and 17min total roast. Roasting to somewhere in between City and Full City.

It's bagged right now, so hope to try it out in the next couple of days. I'll be roasting again this weekend, weather permitting as I am roasting outdoors (keeps wifey happy).

On another note, I sold my Sunbeam EM6910 espresso machine and now have a Nuova Simonelli Oscar HX machine at home, with the Gaggia Classic still at work. All good, except I'm now short a milk jug and tamp, so need to do some shopping asap as I can see I will get tired of commuting to and from work with barista tools in my messenger bag

coffee breath... flaunt it.
