>like 3-4 days after roasting, tasted great, after 2 weeks it still tasted good even a bit "old"
From experience, 2 week old coffee you're getting into daily is very different than 2 week old coffee that has been sealed (relatively) untouched in a oneway valve'd bag/jar. When I say rest, I mean rest. I "burp" my jars once after 3-4 days, get a smell of them, and then seal them back up to offgas slowly. If I can't help myself I'll snag out a little bit after a week or two to sample how its coming along but I try to schedule my roasts so I've always got something ready to drink. I might even try a shorter rest now that I've gotten a handle on coarser "turbo" shots.
>oh and my other roaster was fine
Other than having boring beans lately :/
>oh and i have those rok storage jars which i really like, its not a vacuum but good enough.
I only vacuum seal greens I buy in 20lbs bags and stuff to freeze. I'd freeze my greens too I just don't want to sacrifice any more freezer space. I think my goal this year is to not end up buying the weber dosing tubes. I'm sure they'd be great for feeding into the wug, I just don't want to spend the money. That's money I could be wasting on $200 sworks baskets. I even had them bought and paid for on the Key preorder I cancelled. We'll see what happens.
>110v
If you manage to find a used or new 220v (actual popcorn) popper I can probably help you through the mods I did on mine.

>but im a crazy procrastinator
Why do you think the mods aren't finished on the new popper* lol. That was my winter project while I wasn't using it. For some reason I waited until a week before spring to start. I'll try to get it done this month but I just know all my electronics are going to end up taped to an amazon box :/ Oh well. I'm off to bed. Further testing on the cafec green pack in the morning. First cup of the kenyan with them was great.
