And this is why losing all my posts pisses me off so bad... no Alerts because I'm not in the thread anymore (searching for "Coffee" is a poor way to find this thread).
Is that the style with the slowly turning two blade rotor?
Also a fine way to roast.

Amazingly, there are modestly priced home models out now.
And not so modestly priced as well... programmability etc.
(Sorry about the air popper, many owners just rewire them early on. Possibly the roasting duty cycle is harder on the motor than popcorn. And there's a difference there between the Original and the "II" models. I believe the original is preferred.)
Wish I could discuss flavor profiles with you, but I just don't have the palette, or the experience. I buy a pound or two at a time so I don't keep multiples open to compare.
I did finally get around to online ordering some. Nothing special, not crap either.
Some pseudo Latin sounding company out of Florida with "Don" in the name.

It's a more than 30 mile round trip if I want anything better than "Seattle's Best" from town, so it was about time I started to see what I can get delivered.
I also finally got a pair of SS screens for the Aeropress.
More fines, more mouthfeel etc. Somewhat bolder flavor.
They work fine, but clean-up is a water hog.
It's a toss-up which I choose even here in the house, I suspect they'll be a no go in the RV.
