McDonald's breakfast is 100% legit, the calorie counts on most of the items are pretty reasonable too.

why won't they sell me a mcgriddle sandwich with nothing in it but another mcgriddle bun?! :rant:

They come hot out of the vending machine or are kept in a hot cabinet in the convenience store. Most vending machines stop selling hot coffee in the summer though which is ridiculous.

japan has crazy vending machines. hot canned beverages is pretty cool

was watching an old ep of good eats about coffee, alton brown's trick is to put some kosher salt on the grounds when you go to brew - reduces the acidity of the coffee without adding a salt taste

tried it this morning and it was a really good smooth pot o joe

i read somewhere that coffee tastes better if you add salt and eggshells to the grounds

Running out of beans so today is roasting day. Taking a break as I just burned the poo poo out of my arm due to my roaster being something of a POS when it comes to cooling (and thermometry, but that's another story).

My scrub-tier roasting station:

The roaster is a Behmor 1600 plus, which has the advantage of being inexpensive and... mostly nothing else really. The cooling process on this thing takes forever resulting in gross baked beans, so I've built this ghetto cooling setup:

The way the thing is built makes it nearly impossible to measure the temp of the beans, so I'm left to try to infer WTF is happening with the roast from a couple of thermometers ostensibly measuring the environmental temp and the exhaust temp. They create repeatable numbers, but those numbers are in some scale that nobody knows outside of not being degrees F or C.

All in all this way too much fuckin effort to justify the money saved by buying green beans instead of beans roasted by someone who actually knows what the hell they're doing (eg, not me).

what if you took the tray of hot beans and floated it in the bathtub? i bet that would cool things down

Here's the roast console. The software is a general-purpose interface for controlling roasting equipment, from home-brew heat gun/bread machine setups to large-batch commercial roasters from Probat/Diedrich/Ambex/etc . As such, you need to do a little setup to get everything working with your own gear. I've added buttons and sliders to let me control the various components of my particular roaster which you see along the left side (heat & fan) and along the bottom.
