5 out of 5 stars I'm now roasting coffee   July 14, 2008
The thought of actually roasting coffee was intimidating. Kenneth Davies not only made the process possible for, me he did it with the kind of good writing that makes complex subjects fascinating. Oh, there's still so much to learn but as I keep coming back to Home Coffee Roasting I pick up a bit more. The the author's enthusiasm for coffee is so contagious, I've got the bug for good.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent source for the new home roaster!!   April 4, 2008
Hands down, the second best way to learn about home roasting! My copy is dog eared and well worn. I refer to it, WAY BEYOND Alot! (the first best way to learn is by visiting and bookmarking the "Coffee University" at sweet marias dot com)


4 out of 5 stars Good place to start   February 9, 2008
As a novice, this is a great book to start exploring coffee roasting. Easy to follow and very informative.


5 out of 5 stars wonderful book   August 9, 2007
I plan to start roasting my own coffee and was told to read this book first. I did, and that was good advice. It's very readable and full of excellent reference material. I had already done enough research to know what roaster I would start with, but it was nice to have such a full description of the pros and cons of each kind. There's a great deal of useful, even crucial, information to learn here about coffee. Also, the book is so well organized that it will be easy to use as a reference.
