Once I hear First Crack, I let it stay on 482 for 40 sec and then turn it down to 456 until I get to my desired roast Color, smell, chaff all weigh in to when I decide to pull the roast. Typically I pull the batch as soon as I hear 2nd Crack start, but some beans recommend a lighter roast and I pull it before. Second Crack seems to happen around the 16:30 to 17:00. I always emergency Stop and Dump my Beans onto a Pan that sits on the Back of a Fan! Army Coffee, I have a question, you say 11:30 to 12:00 mins in is approx 1c and 16:30 to 17 is approx 2c. Does your time (in this example) start when you throw the beans in the preheated GC? Thank the Lord for my family.

Wow, I just found this forum and most of my questions have already been answered. The roasting profiles are exactly what I have been looking for so that I can stop twisting knobs in hopes for the best. Unfortunately this leads me to more questions. Looking the profile for Sumatra Mandheling, was a preheat session used since the first notes were entered in at 5:30. Also what is the significance of "Bump"? Thank you in advance |

Welcome! Thanks for joining us. "Bump" means to raise the temperature. Bump the temp up to 460F. Drop means just that; drop the temp. Keep posting questions. Have fun! John Respect the bean.

Thank you. ah, that makes me feel pretty dumb that I did not realize that one. I assume that since there are not any initial entries into the temp field for 0:00 to 5:00 that preheating was not used for Sumatra Mandheling? |

If you're speaking of Eddie's profiles, I think the preset temp may have been 300F and the roast started at that temp. John Respect the bean.
