I have been home roasting for a few years. The advice to just dive in and roast at home is spot on. Look into Boot Camp for online training as well as many other training centers, some are close to you. Feel free to drop me a message, we could compare notes. I am preparing to start a roastery...

This is a great thread. Waiting for the next update. Looking for a profile roaster and a 25-35 pound propane fired drum.

Not to step on your flowers, I'd love to find some savings on an SF1 as well. $9400 is a steep entry price. Maybe we can rally a few of us to get a group buy? (Tried to upload a picture and link for those interested, but alas, after 15 minutes and multiple attempts, I give up. )

I am shopping for a Roaster and have come across unbelievable prices on the Ozturk. It is very enticing to consider a lower entry price when also looking at the costs of building a roasting room and laboratory. I see these are used at Adirondack in NY, any one else using this roaster on the...

Do you have more pictures and info to share? I was not able to find a website for the farm. Your numbers. 808.895.0196 (Used a period rather than a hyphen). 808-895-0196 (Used a hyphen). (808) 895-0196 (Paranthesis) fyi. Try changing the input format.

Requiring pick up also limits the pool of potential buyers. Offering a shipping option will widen interest. Any info on the cyclone? Pictures of all that is included in this sale?

Do you have pics and info? I am curious to learn more.

Perhaps we will run into each other. Good to know someone from the forum will be attending.

CoffeeJunky, Where is your friend in Kona? Does the farm have a name? I have many friends there and like to check out other farms. To confirm, yes, many farms will roast outside and allow the chaff to collect "Where it lands". I'd prefer to collect the chaff more carefully and move to a...

Hello fellow coffee lovers. I am finalizing plans to attend coffeefest NY this year and thought I would see who else may be attending? Welcome to Coffee Fest, Where Coffee & Tea Business Happens Perhaps some of us may meet up?

Stale thread. OP has one post 18 months ago. For everyone else: It is best to go to any and all tradeshows you can attend. Make your own opinion from there. The big event is SCAA each year. It is good to experience (I am told, this year will be my first visit) but is geared to larger...

Spoke with a tech guy from shopkeep today and it seems their solution will not fit our needs. I did speak with a software evaluator and it looks like an ERP solution will be the ticket. I have a request in to view demos of a few solutions. If anyone is interested, please catch me offline.

Thanks so much John. I have been very busy the last few months. Getting pics of the trees has been on my to do list for a while. Need more time to catch up. (or scratch sleeping all together).

I have been drinking a cuban dark roast the last few days. We just received a flight of coffees from KonaEarth.com Planning on cupping the Lot.

Geo, Thanks for sharing your art. Very nice. Best of luck. I'd like to check out more.
