WARNING! This device is capable of high temperatures. If used without due caution it can constitute a safety hazard. The outer surface will become hot enough to cause very serious burns and the bean roaster has the potential to ignite flammable materials on or near the roaster. The Hottop Coffee Roaster can be operated in such a way as to create a fire hazard by igniting the beans being roasted and/or the chaff (a by-product of the roasting process). Always follow the safety guidelines a

II - Coffee Roasting- A Brief History It wasn’t that long ago that it was common for people to buy raw coffee beans from the stores and then roast these at home for fresh coffee. That was particularly true in rural areas that were removed from the small roasters found in city neighborhoods. At that time, roasting coffee was considered a normal part of everyday life and a part of many peoples’ cultural heritage. There were many types of small hand-cranked roasting devices available, usually h

III - Introduction to the Roasting Process The changes that the coffee bean goes through during the roasting process are amazing. Those small, hard beans, when properly exposed to controlled heat, grow in size and change in color, becoming the source of one of the world’s most cherished beverages. The Hottop Coffee Roaster makes it easy to get the best from the coffee. Getting the best flavor from the coffee is a true culinary art, and just like other similar cooking skills, you have to le

Second Crack - After fi rst crack ends there is usually a period of about one minute before second crack begins. By that time, the beans are a delicious-looking, dark shade of brown. Second crack can be a little more diffi cult to hear as these sounds are lower in volume, but once you learn to distinguish the sound it is unmistakable. It is a more muffl ed, subtle sound than fi rst crack. If fi rst can be described as breaking pencils, second sounds like breaking toothpicks. Generally, once sec

Temperature as a Roast Indicator Temperature is an excellent indicator of the state of the roast. Although the temperature sensor of the Hottop roaster is not in the beans through the entire roast it still supplies useful information that can help you predict changes taking place in the beans. As you gain some experience this information will become more useful in getting predictable and consistent results. For example, when roasting decaffeinated cof- fee it will be more difficult to see colo

For your first experimental batch select a variety that is easy to roast. Most any of the varieties from Central or South America will do fine. Guatemalan, Colombian, Brazilian, Bolivian, or Costa Rican are all good choices. These coffees have very loud cracks that are easy to recognize. Moreover, these are also rela- tively inexpensive, so if anything goes wrong, you don’t have to feel too bad about discarding the beans.
