Default Coffee Oils

When I first started roasted coffee, the beans would show some oils on them. I also was gifted some coffee not too long ago that had the same signs.

I have noticed my beans now, don't show that once they are roasted. Any clues to why that is?

How dark are you roasting them? The darker, the more oils that will appear.

Maybe that is why. I haven't been doing really dark like I was when I started. Here and there I do semi dark, but not super dark. Maybe I will do the next batch dark again, see what happens.

Yup, the oils surface as you do further into the roast. I do not roast many batches that dark.
Most of the beans I roast seem to produce more interesting flavors if I roast them a little lighter.
Of course each bean will be a different preference, as will each pallate.

That is why I stopped going so dark. At first, I knew I liked dark roast from store bought. Once I started roasted, I learned that was not the case.

I wasn't sure if I was storing them wrong or something. Causing them to dry out? I can see oils once it is brewed.
