And So It Begins…

We just placed our first order of green coffee beans from Coffee Storehouse. For our first foray into roasting we chose the Brazil Moreninha Formosa Full Natural which they describe as:

A sweet, smooth fresh Brazil with terrific body, nice fruit and just a hint of nuttiness. Great for espresso. This is a full natural coffee dried on raised African beds.

Grown in the city of Serra do Salitre, Minas Gerais, Cerrado Mineiro.

Average Altitude : 1,200 meters.

Mmm, makes my palette tingle just reading about it.

We are going to try two different roasting methods this time: hot air roasting via a popcorn popper and pan roasting using a skillet and a grill. After talking to the folks a Coffee Storehouse, we’re expecting the best results from the pan roasting. On the other hand, roasting coffee beans in a popcorn popper has intrigued us for a while now.
