Tom Haigler Just Built his new setup!

Here is a Tom's perfect roast with Colombia Organic Don Telmo Reserve Bourbon - Royal NY.

This was a 2 pound roast.

Temp was between 500 degrees & 525 degrees during the whole roast

first crack was heard at 11:30 into the roast

was hitting first crack consistently at 12:55 not too slow or too fast

16:15 minutes the start of second crack

popping into a FULL second crack (rolling) while I was dumping my beans into the cooling tray.

A good Full City with no oils. Just the way I like my coffee.
