I once bought a coffee roaster at Zabars and learned how to roast green beans. It was a huge mess and produced so much smoke I thought the neighbors would cal 911, but when quenched and put into a French press, those fresh-roasted beans would make the best coffee ever. It only took a day or two before the roasted beans lost their edge, and even a hour or so after roasting some of the delicate flavors were gone, but nothing since has even come close to truly fresh-roasted coffee.

I envy you.

A dear old lady at church grew up in Panama on a finca. She told me she never combed her own hair until she married and left home. They roasted coffee beans every morning on a metal plate over the fire, and THAT, she said, was coffee.
