Hello all!
I just recently started to roast my own coffee as of last week. I've chosen to use a propane burner and a 10 inch deep wall cast iron skillet to roast them in. I'm very happy with my results and have to say that I never thought I'd enjoy drinking straight black coffee!
Anyway, I'm interested in what other home roasters here on B&B use and suggest to store their freshly roasted coffee beans in that allows them to continue to degass c02 but keeps oxygen out. I'm really interested in anything made out of stainless steel or glass.
I don't need anything that's huge since I only roast about 1.5 cups of raw beans for a weeks worth of coffee for myself.
Granted I could go a really cheap route and use Mason jars and plastic homebrew airlock bubbles, but that would look a bit tacky!
