In case anyone is daft enough to want to try roasting your own, I recommend the free way to test if you want to do it more than five times (well, free except for buying green beans): a cast iron skillet or dutch oven (high walls make for a bit more even roasting) on medium flame/heat, stir constantly, remove some point after first crack stops and the beans burn. Easy to scorch the beans this way though, so once you know you want to roast regularly...
We love roasting in our Zen Roast. https://www.zenroast.co. I can roast 3/4 cup (I know, I’m supposed to weigh the beans. Bah.) green beans to a dark medium roast very evenly on medium flame in 12-15 minutes, which yields one cup roasted coffee. I age it 24 hours to 7 days, with the sweet spot we prefer at around 3 days, but that’s a pretty subtle difference when using great beans and roaster.
