☕ - The hot beverage that powers the world!
Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!
Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

What do you find the benefits are of roasting at home vs pre roasted?
Most store bought coffee is stale. Whole bean roasted coffee has the same shelf life as bananas before exhibiting off flavors. As someone that goes through a pound a week I was buying from specialty roasters that roast to order like Counter Culture. Green beans store better and I can buy high grade beans for $6/lb. Behmor paid for itself in a few months.
