- try with a 300g batch
- heavier batch will have better thermal stability
- making some sort of cover and exhaust will also increase thermal stability
- thermal stability is important so the beans get evenly roasted
- should lose 16-19% weight
- after a couple of minutes light smoke and chaff will start coming out
- total roast time should be between 15 - 20 minutes
- 1st crack will be between 6 - 14 minutes
- have the heat gun on max and raise the height by 2 or 3 cm at first crack
- 2nd crack 5 mins after first crack
