As mentioned in the last post, I signed up for the Reddit Secret Santa gift exchange. I got green coffee beans as a result. Today, I made my first attempt at roasting them. I have documented the process photographically on flickr. Go look!

I have not ground the beans up yet, and brewed them, as my crappy blade grinder has vanished. This actually happened a long time ago, and I have no idea where it is. Time for a new burr grinder anyways!
