Killer Beans will make you crazy!!

You have some nice offerings but ill have pass for now.
I do home roasting and right now I'm hooked on Flores, Bajawa Ngura, Organic.

The rule i go by for good coffee is

green coffee beans are good for 2 years
roasted coffee is good for 2 weeks
ground coffee is good for 2 days

a good bur grinder will make a difference in taste but a good coffee pot makes a much better improvement in taste.

The best coffee pot i found for home use is Technivorm Moccamaster its not cheap but it makes one hell of a cup of coffee.

Mangy, I've heard that some people use popcorn poppers for roasters. Have you ever tried that and if so, did have good luck?

[Mangyrat]

You can use the old air poppers to roast coffee but i have never tried it my self.

If your thinking about it start here http://www.sweetmarias.com/index.php
i got 2 of my home rosters form them and my last coffee pot "Technivorm Moccamaster".

I order my green coffee from http://www.thecaptainscoffee.com/

Be warned if you start home roasting you'll never go back to drinking the coffee at work or star bucks, it will all taste like crap

Are green beans considerably cheaper than buying roasted beans?

Yes between $4 and $6 a pound is what i pay for good green coffee even after shipping its cheaper.

If you look around you can find some good deals on shipping to keep the price under $6 for decent beens.

I look at coffee like i do cigars its a hobie and i want the best tasting coffee/cigars i can get.

one big plus for home roasting is discovering the different tastes you can get just by doing a lighter or darker roast using the same beens.
