Yeah, but your machine is sucking in
35?F air instead of
80?. It was a balmy

The roast was of my Mongrel Blend (everything I have that's less than a full batch gets dumped into a 5-gallon pail & thoroughly mixed. This blend gave me enough for three 620 gram batches. It had C. American, SE Asian, India, & African, Arabica, plus a *bit* of good Indian Robusta for the tang.
Surprisingly, more folks like my Mongrel Blends than like the SO's.
