I'm enjoying this bean quite a bit, however it has behaved differently in the roaster than any other bean I have tried so far. It seems to take a lot more heat to carry it through to 1C in ~10-11 minutes. And when it finishes, there's wild variance in bean color. Some beans...
I was given a gift of cold brew beans.
