Homeroasting Chapter 2 - 2007/02/06 12:35 This thread discusses the Content article: Homeroasting Chapter 2

It seems to me that pooh-pooh-ing home roasting is just another aspect of a much wider misapprehension that doing something yourself necessarily results in an inferior product as compared to the commercial equivalent.

Music is another example. Just a generation ago not only could most people play an instrument, they frequently did for their own amusement. Now music is just something you buy on CDs. People have bought into the lie that only big record labels produce music, and have simply given up.

Maybe my home roasted blends will never match the subtlety of the best commerical blends, but they're a darned sight better than the majority of commercial blends, and are invariably fresher.

So take heart home roasters! Trust your tastebuds and you'll soon realize that you don't have to have a 'big rig' to produce good coffee.
