Fresh roast, YUM!

Anyone that says 5 days out is not fresh simply doesn't know what they are talking about.

I would stick with keeping it simple for now and developing yours senses (sight, smell, sound) to your roaster, be leery of overcomplicated posts at CG on your roaster and look for those with experience that keep it simple. I like the info a bean mass probe and an accurate environment temp probe give for graphing out roast profiles but this still gets a bit overwhelming and I return to just roasting with the senses for awhile.

No turning back now!
