Made my first attempt at roasting my own beans today. I used a steel sieve and just kept it moving over a medium flame on my stove for about 10 minutes.

The flavor turned out to be a bit 'greener' than I expected, and also a little bit of burnt flavor, but overall really pretty good for a first attempt and using unconventional roasting methods.

The difference in flavor also might have been because I was using Ethiopian beans when I'm used to Central/South American beans. I think I'll try Columbian next time.

Anyhow, overall it was much better than Starbucks/Peets/Grocery store bagged coffee, but still not as good as my favorites from boutique roasters.
