In this episode of the Roast It Yourself Podcast, Stephen and Catherine focus in on the real-world experience of roasting coffee with the Fresh Roast SR800 and other small-batch air roasters.
They talk honestly about what these machines are great at—and where expectations can get out of whack. From realistic batch sizes and roast times to cooldown periods and the limits of back-to-back roasting, this episode is all about setting yourself up for success with an SR800-style setup.
You’ll hear practical guidance on:
How much coffee you can reasonably roast per batch on the SR800
Why pushing max capacity often leads to inconsistent results
How to plan a roasting session without spending your entire afternoon doing it
What “efficient” roasting actually looks like on a home air roaster
If you’re roasting on a Fresh Roast SR800 (or considering one), this episode offers grounded, experience-based advice to help you work within the machine’s strengths, avoid common frustrations, and enjoy better, more consistent coffee without overcomplicating the process.
A must-listen for SR800 owners and anyone roasting on compact home air roasters.
