Why do you home roast

Its 2-5 for me. However, you forgot No 7: Do you like to stun "food-snobs" and similar people by simply saying that you roast your own? YES!!! It never fails!

2,3 and 4 for me, and a little bit of moccafaux's 7.

Not to mention the look on the faces of your guests when you explain how the Kopi Luwak they just drank got its unique flavour!

I still chuckle about one of the guys at work - this guy is a bit of a sneery type who obviously thought I was being a bit over the top insisting on using freshly ground coffee. As he said, since I didn't roast it myself I didn't know how fresh the beans were. When I told him I did roast it myself so I knew exactly what they were and when they were roasted he looked a bit sheepish and shut up.
