Coffee Roasting: Best Practices

Advanced Roasting Knowledge

Coffee Roasting: Best Practices, by coffee expert and author Scott Rao, is possibly the best resource for home coffee roasters who are looking to move into a commercial roasting environment or simply enhance their roasting abilities. The culmination of Rao's 25 years of roasting, Coffee Roasting: Best Practices seeks to equip roasters to craft and control roast curves and how to avoid "RoR" (rate of rises) crashes, flicks, baked coffee, unnecessary over-roasting, and other defects. With this book as a reference, you can take control over your roasting profiles and follow the science behind third-wave coffee roasting.
