I have been trying Scott Rao Hario V60 pourover this week. 1:17 and blooming with 2 parts water the first 45 seconds then splitting the rest into 2 pours. A little stirring is included. We like it.

My brew ratio is 1:17 (exactly 59.5 g/L). That's roughly 8.5g per 5-oz cup.

I'm looking to hire someone to teach/help me to find the best roast profile for the 3 types of coffee that grow on my farm in nicaragua. I live in LA, but but could go anywhere in so cal with my Behmor for a roasting lesson. Please contact me if you're in

When your wife thinks 30 grams for a 6 cup setting is strong, you learn to drink muddy water when you are making coffee for both of you.

I use a rule of thumb of 60 grams per liter. 8 cups (1 liter, 32 oz) = 60 grams, 6 cups (3/4 liter, 24 oz) = 45 grams. 10 cups = 75 grams 12 cups = 90 grams

Administrator Posts: 1554 Joined: December 31, 2008	I have a genuine question I am in the last stages to building a professional home roaster using a 1200 Watt Turbo Oven as a heat source Its a maths question I need to know how to calculate the optimum volume of a heat chamber for best use & control of heat For the fan forced 1200 Watts TO max temp 250 deg Celsius Many thanks in advance KK I home roast and I like it.

Administrator Posts: 1554 Joined: December 31, 2008	An Update I have calculated by using some on-line calculators (and I hope I'm right) I will require a max 10 Litre total heat chamber volume to roast 800 grams comfortably However with some tweaks after testing and insulation I am hopeful to reach 1 kg batches Once plans & 3D modelling is complete I will be discussing with engineers to produce a prototype for testing Unfortunately I don't have access (as I once did) to metal lathes to make it myself KK I home roast and I like it.

1/2 Pounder Posts: 269 Joined: January 09, 2009	Thanks for the reference. I printed the chart at SM and my coffee tastingfriend is bringing some photo quality paper so I can use the photo's as a guide. According to the SM's chart, I roasted into Vienna and lost the bean flavor to the roast flavor. That is why my coffee taster said I was roasting "ordinary" coffee in the Gene. It will roast darker than the Behmor THANKS FOR YOUR HELP --EVERYBODY May the Force be with your cup
