Hit 200 pounds of beans roasted on my home setup this morning
I've been roasting in my garage with a modified popcorn popper for about 8 months now and I just crossed 200 total pounds this morning. Weighed the bags and it came out way higher than I thought cause I don't track every single batch. Anyone else keep a log of their roasting numbers or do you just wing it like I do?

200 pounds of beans roasted" is a great milestone, but it makes me realize I've probably consumed half of that myself. I tried keeping a log once, but after the third batch I forgot to write it down and just started guessing the weights. Now my notebook is full of scribbles like "good batch" and "too dark, maybe 14 minutes?" I'm pretty sure I'm a couple hundred pounds in now too, just without the documentation to prove it.

Haha I feel that scribble life hard. What's the funniest or worst guess you wrote down that ended up actually being right by accident? I've got a note that just says "burnt but good" and somehow that batch was my best ever.
