I’ve been thinking about getting into home roasting, anyone got any tips of first roasters and places to check out for green beans? I was thinking a SR800 with extension tube from sweet Maria’s and the green coffee there as well but love to hear other thoughts!

    I have the SR-500 with the extension tube, and I wouldn’t even consider a Fresh Roast roaster without it. I got my extension tube 2 years after I bought it, and the uniformity of roasts has improved dramatically.

    As for beans, I’ve used Coffee Bean Corral, Blue Mackaw Coffee Roasters (they sell on eBay), Home Roast Coffee, Sweet Maria’s and Amazon.
