But I have experimented a bit by pouring regular brown coffee beans bought at the local supermarket onto a pan and popping them into a 400 degree oven.  I felt that the results were rather good.  After grounding up some of the darkened beans and brewing up a cup, the end-product was generally quite satisfying. Once or twice I had over-darkened the beans such that the liquid end-product tasted mostly like tar.  But there is a middle zone where the brew becomes more chary and robust but is still full of coffee flavor. Any sour notes are drowned out.  <\/p>\n<p>As a rough guildline, it would be good to get the beans that are being re-roasted out of the oven once you can hear them popping.  Yes, you literally hear them popping.  Pretty neat.<\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t had any great, deep or worldly thoughts to discuss (or attempt to discuss) lately; roasting coffee beans is about the best I can do right now.  Perhaps I&#8217;m in an early-winter \/ post-holiday funk.  Perhaps I need a good pick-me-up.  Like a good cup of double-roasted coffee!!  <\/p>\n<p>(But wait &#8212; the more roasting, the less caffeine in coffee.  So, my brain certainly won&#8217;t be kicked back into high gear by these wintertime coffee roasting experiments!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I haven&#8217;t quite yet taken the plunge into buying green coffee beans to roast at home.
