This is a pretty old story. I started thinking about roasting my own coffee beans about 20 years ago, but it wasn’t until around 10 years ago that I finally took the plunge and built a DIY roaster one weekend. I loved the taste of the coffee I roasted so much that I kept refining the roaster design and ended up making prototypes 2 and 3, which I’ve been using as my personal roaster for the past decade. The third version wasn’t fully automated, but I added some sensors to monitor the roasting process and played around with different profiles to get it just right. And that’s the story leading up to the creation of the roastflask.
I wanted to start this blog to share my experience of developing a completely new and automated version, which is different from the previous version. At this point, I’m facing a lot of practical challenges and making progress, and I think it would be helpful to document and share this journey. I hope that this blog will be a place where I can share my thoughts and insights about the development process, and also connect with others who are interested in this topic.
I love coffee and highly encourage your trial. good luck!
It’s a smart idea, I hope so you could make a results.
