About the Roasting Process Maybe you have heard that roasting coffee is a work of art and to achieve excellent beautiful taste development in coffee beans it requires skillful and calculated inputs by the roast master throughout the entire roasting process? Is this true or not… Let’s look at this topic a little deeper. Some would argue that roasting coffee is easier than all that and you don’t need to worry about all those “technical aspects” to enjoy roasting your own coffee at home. In the most basic sense, you simply need to heat the beans to about 450*F or until they reach the desired “doneness” or “brown” and then cool them as quickly as possible with a fan to stop the internal roasting changes happening inside the beans.
