Today I am cupping some Rwanda Masaka
a rich but smooth coffee!
It has hints of nuts & honey.
This batch I roasted just into second crack.
For those of you that don't home roast the beans go threw 2 steps.
First is when the water leaves the bean & the bean makes a loud cracking sound. Then a few more minutes into the roast the sugers start to crackle, that is known as second crack.
I often roast only to first crack (light roast) My wife likes a darker
roast and for her I will roast into second crack.
Well I hope everyone is enjoying a fine cup of coffee today!
