Coffee Roasting: Best Practices

Coffee Roasting: Best Practices is the result of Scott Rao's 25 years of experience in roasting and consulting, offering the most advanced guide to expert-level coffee roasting. Unlike The Coffee Roaster's Companion, which covered the fundamentals of roasting and various machines, this book zeroes in on advanced techniques for crafting and managing roast curves. It provides detailed strategies to prevent issues like "ROR" crashes and flicks, baked coffee, excessive roastiness, and other defects. This book establishes the benchmark for third-wave coffee roasting practices.
