A novice coffee roaster is $200 and that’s if you don’t go the popper route. Green beans are half the cost of roasted so you recoup the cost within about a year. The beans will never be fresher and you have complete control over the blend, roast, etc. How do coffee companies justify the markup on such a measly value-add on unroasted beans? And why do people keep buying pre-roasted? Is it just a self-perpetuating meme at this point?

Because that would be like rolling coal in your place, but with coffee soot instead of diesel.

you think that's bad? these idiots are buying whole coffee beans that are <1% caffeine by weight! you can just buy caffeine pills made with cheap inert fillers instead of wasting your money on excess coffee mass.

Why the gently caress would you buy sliced bread when you can just buy regular loaves and use a knife? It's almost like "It's the greatest thing since sliced bread" is a saying for a reason. Goddamn pencilhands, you are a real bad poster.
