Then I became a bit of a coffee snob.

I could only roast 100 grams of coffee at a time in the popcorn popper, which is only enough for one pot of coffee in the morning for me. So it was time to upgrade.

I bought the [SR800 fluid bed roaster](https://www.sweetmarias.com/fresh-roast-sr800.html), which upped my roasting capacity and gave me finer control on temperature and airflow. Suffice to say my roasts improved a lot! At this point, I would consider my coffee good enough to sell at a farmer's market to break even.

If you ever find yourself on a coffee roasting forum and bring up the SR800, someone is bound to bring up the [famous RazzoRoasting extension tube](https://www.etsy.com/shop/RazzoRoasting?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=1105001328). If you look for advice for how to use the SR800, I swear it's assumed that you have this very specific accessory. ...And so I bought one.

Don't worry, that is the extent of all of my coffee spending (for now). I am a very satisfied coffee roaster now. Check out this quick series of images going from the green beans to a nearly finished product! I can spend about 45 minutes and go from nothing to nearly 2 pounds of roasted beans, enough for about a week and a half of coffee. Not bad! The only downside is that now I feel like I need to buy coffee from local roasters to get my fix. There are certainly crueler fates.

As a sign off, I will share something that surprised me about coffee roasting. When I roast coffee, the most important cue to determine if the coffee is roasted is the _sound_. That's right, not the color, not the smell, but the sound. When heating up a coffee bean, the water trapped inside eventually bursts out of the bean in a rapid expansion. This is called "first crack", and indicates that the coffee is roasted enough to be drinkable. The expansion also releases the chaff from the bean. If you continue heating up the bean, you will eventually reach "second crack". I think a solid medium roast is taken out just before second crack, so I try to take my coffee out to this point and it hasn't proved me wrong yet.

Normally these guys are flighty, staying close to the ground in small brush or tall grasses, but this one was putting on a proper show for the mating season. Even when you get a glimpse of one, it is usually just that, as they have jumped away before you can pull out the camera, taunting you with their [iconic call](https://ebird.org/species/comyel#Modal-playlist).

{{% /sidenote %}} I was very pleased to capture a few choice shots of the bird. Hopefully there are more to come. While we were out, I also got a nice picture of a hermit thrush and a king snake.

These images have been compressed quite a bit for a lighter internet footprint. These have all been resized to 25% of their original size. If you would like the full sized images, let me know and I will send you a link!
