    Anyone in NOLA want to split a sack of beans

    Scored in New Orleans

    Found a local roaster that was willing to sell me green beans. Killer good (Nicaraguan Matagalpa). Went by and picked them up. Just mentioning in case some local NOLA roasters are interested. http://www.orleanscoffee.com/ Super nice people too.

    Duplicating a roast

    I love the Nicaraguan Estatt Santa Lucia from Dallis Coffee in NY. I'm new to this, but want to know if I could closely duplicate this roast. What kind of green beans and what would the roasting schedule be. Thanks for your help.

    Stove top roaster

    New here. Is spending $ 50.00 for this thing (including some sample green beans) worth the money - kind of a intro to roasting ?
