Bring them on, Phil! You won't regret it :lol:

BTW, I took a pic from this Indian Monsooned Malabar which is roasted to perfection. I love this coffee. It has a nice creamy body. If I would homeroast one, this would be a color reference for me....

Good luck!

I'd just like to say that I didn't roast mine this dark. Just in case I'm seen as a one-trick-pony :D
I wish I were what I was when I wished I were what I am.

FWIW, my Monsoon Malabar roasts look the same as the picture Joey sent (the way it looks on my monitor anyway ;-). Thanks Joey!). If I get it right, that is, but then I roast a lot of aged beans, both this one and Old Brown Sulawesi and Old Java so I have gotten used to them by now.
Anyhow, same darkness, same evenness for me as in Joey´s picture. Roasted with the heatgun+bowl. The trick for me is to dare to keep roasting even though it looks bad to begin with (the first 10-15min. of a 20 minute hg roast). The beans even out at the end.
