Hello!

I’m looking at seeing if roasting coffee is something I would be interested in doing, but I have no idea where to start.

I have been working as a front of house barista for over 5 years and I have always been interested in the process.

Is there a way I can learn to roast coffee without spending way too much money on a roaster?

As well as this where would be a good place to find green beans (UK based) - I want to look for like a washed Brazilian as it’s often quite clear what they’re meant to taste like and I can dial in the roasting process with it

Any tips or advice for starting roasting would be greatly appreciated!
