  2. #13 When the taste change

    When you roast the same bean on a regular basis and do the same roast profile – most of the time the taste turn out approximately the same. But sometimes it doesn’t anymore. That could be the beans getting older or changes in the environment. This time I visit Cristian Scigliano, barista and...

  10. #8 Roast degree

    The very light roasts are worlds apart from the darker ones roasted to Second Crack. Light roast is a very small part of the marked and strange to most coffee drinkers.
