How Coffee Roasting Temperatures Are Helpful

Coffee roasting temperatures are reference points that guide us as we manage heat during the roasting process. In this video we will go through a complete roast and identify important ways we reference temperatures during the roast which include: preheat/charging the roaster, soak, temperature limits, changes that alert us, timing events like first crack, our rate of rise, and bean temperature.

We will be using the Behmor coffee roaster which has manual heat control and a temperature sensor that reads the temperature of the roasting environment but regardless of the roaster. Regardless of the type of roaster, the concepts shared in this video can be applied to most other devices.

I roast coffee on my Mill City 500-gram commercial coffee roaster every week. I also use a Behmor and a hot-air popcorn popper to roast some great coffee. Join me as we roast, brew, and cup coffee every week at home.

Do you roast coffee at home? Do you craft single-serve coffee and if so, what brewing method do you like? Please share your comments and be sure to like this video!
