Haraar is also one of my favs and I like to roast mine to the same colour superdark, superlight. If you like the haraar, you'll also like the monsooned, not much chaff with these - wait till you start on the Central Americans, then you'll see chaf!!
Don't worry about the odd colours, some may disappear after a few hours. You could experiment a bit with say 70gr, but this may shorten the roast time. If you see too much surface oil after 2 days, again you could reduce the roast time, but for me, a bit of oiling dosen't seem to spoil the taste.
FWIW the destruction booklet which came with my roaster states that 1st crack sounds like broken pencils and 2nd crack like broken toothpicks. Hmm they must think I'm made of money.
