How’d you recommend starting to roast? I’m really considering it and I think your set up speaks to experience
Truth is, I went straight for the Gene. The Behmor is also a popular option in entry-level coffee roasters.
Most places seem to recommend to start with a cheap popcorn machine or a heat gun and a dog bowl as a low-cost way to get you feet wet.
I was thinking of going straight for a Behmor so I’m glad to hear others have done the same!
Yeah I've heard you can't go wrong with either option. I think I went for the Gene because it's much easier to find in Europe.
