Plenty of tips on using an aeropress on this link http://www.coffeerevolution.net/aeropress-guide/

They do produce a nice crisp clean tasting coffee, I let the coffee steep for a good 4 minutes and stir it before pressing it out. Use a fine grind and dark roast for best results IMO.

Very nice. Roasting coffebeans in a simple pan does it too. But needs continously stirring the beans for an even roast…

Hey Max,
I have similarly experienced the short (3 min) roasting times. Usually my first batch is about 3-4 mins and the consecutive batches are even a bit shorter (as the machine is hot!). I keep wanting to roast outside where the temp. right now is about 20-30º cooler. I think having a much cooler ambient temp. would prolong the roast time.
I also have tilted my machine back about 15-20º so less beans jump out and it seems to give a more even roast. This has helped with that funky taste, a lot of which I chalked up to a quick and more uneven roast. I hope this helps.
You might check out the forums at http://coffeegeek.com or http://coffeed.com
good luck

Hey guys, to update: I ended up finding a Presto Poplite (looks to be at least a cousin, if not sibling, of your little popper) and have roasted up a few batches thus far. Seems to be coming along nicely, although I am a bit curious about the quick roast (running somewhere around 3 min, which seems to be a few minutes faster than that suggested by Sweet Maria’s). Have you had similar results for such short roasts? The beans also tend to have a bit of an uncharacteristic funky tang to them (I smell and taste a lot of coffee at work), although this could very well be a trait of the beans themselves. I bought an Ethiopia Limu, a Guatemala Finca San Diego Buena Vista (Bourbon) and a Brazil Bahia Chapada Diamantina – a pretty widely varied sample. At this point, I am pretty happy to chalk the still-totally-drinkable-and-enjoyable-home-roasted-coffee-experience up to just having started my home roasting career, having faith that things will get better as I hone my methods.

I would love to ask, however, if you have any advice on ways to keep the roasting beans from jumping out of the popper and perhaps a word or two on batch sizes. Alright, this is turning rambly. Happy roasting team!

Rick – Thanks for that recommendation. We are thinking about getting a different machine as we have noticed a lot of waste. This was one recommended in some books but it’s good to hear other thoughts.

I would recommend a Toastmaster 6203 or a West Bend Poppery with the side vents. You lose a lot of coffee with the Presto. Some people use a glass chamber from a lamp to contain the jumping coffee.

Inspired by this post I just ordered 3lbs of green from Sweet Maria’s and am now searching out a popcorn popper. Very excited. I’ll let you know how my adventures in home roasting unfold…

Wow! That is so neat that you can roast coffee beans using a popcorn popper! I’ve always been tempted to buy green beans and try roasting them myself, but have never taken the plunge.
