Good work.

Make sure to let the beans breathe for 3-days. A sealed lid will make them much more acidic due to the CO2 being reabsorbed.

Hey Dude,
I bought a popper yesterday at WallGreens for $9.99 and went to my local coffee house (BeanWerks) here in Asheville, NC and bought some beans. Roasted them last night- Everything went just like you said. I’m waiting a few days before I try it cause another video said the coffee is better after 3 days. Thanks for all the great info and the video.

the container I had the unroasted coffee in is a 3 cup capacity mason jar. That was not a very approximate dispensing, but when I carefully measure the goal is 2/3′s cup.

I think you meant 1/3 or even 1/6, because 2/3 = 66% and you definitely used about 15% – 30%. Not to be picky or anything.
