Roastin’

22 05 2009

Jon’s started roasting his own coffee beans inspired from his good friend Kyle. Hey’s going to jimmy-rig jerri-rig a popcorn maker into a roaster. (I misspoke and called it jimmy-rigging but Jon told me Jerry does it. Jimmy’s apparently not involved. ;-) ) Anyway, here’s some photos of the roasting. Pretty fun!

I like the picture of Jon holding the roaster and smiling. He could be a ‘Price Is Right’ model! ;-)

fun! nothing tastes quite as good (or satisfying) as a cup you’ve roasted yourself!
