Bottom Line: Turns out I LOVE roasting my own beans. I can now enjoy the top quality of beans (Jamaican, Kona, etc.) for about half of the cost of retail roasted beans---and roasted my way!

Bottom Line: The best roaster value available today. Standard profiles result in under-roasted beans (can be overcome by cheating).
