This week we're roasting a Colombian Gesha coffee. We only have 1 Lb to roast and we have to decide a charge temperature to use to get this right.

Charge Temp - 371
Dry Phase 44%
Milliard/Browning Phase 37%
Development Phase 19%

This Colombian Gesha was a fruit bomb. It has a smooth, focused and upfront strawberry and dark cherry fruit with some cinnamon, carmel and gently lime acidity when roasted at a medium roast. The flavors sit on your tongue for what seems like an eternity - extremely long finish.
We talk about charge temperatures, roasting times & percentages within each of the 3 phases.
