There are lots of places to buy green coffee online. Sweet Maria's and Happy Mug are two popular ones. Roasting at home costs roughly half to one-third the price of buying equivalent roasted coffee, I'd say, and you can always be sure it's fresh. It can be a challenge to roast at professional quality on a home machine, though.

Having used both a hot air popper and an actual coffee roaster I wouldn't say that's entirely true. Having adjustable heat settings gives you WAY more control over the final product. Yes you can hack that into a hot air popper through various methods, but not everyone feels comfortable modifying electrical equipment that regularly pulls 1000+ watts. Plus if you roast often the chaff collector is an absolute must.
A popcorn popper is a great low-investment introduction to home coffee roasting but this is definitely a step up.

I use Happy Mug and pay about $5 a pound but Sweet Maria's is really popular also, both are websites. Besides dialing in exactly how I want them which is fun to do and learn, the flavor is just top notch and more comparable to what shops that roast around me are charging $16-20+ for 12 ounces.

where do you get green beans? is there a reason to roast your own versus buying from a roaster? looks like green beans are like $7/lb from the burman versus $14-20/lb from local roaster

nothing that a $20 hot-air popcorn maker could not do, just make sure it has a cyclone airflow such as Nostalgia at Walmalt so your beans don't get blown out.

lol. That's how it started for me. Burman gives at paper with directions for the unit. It's very helpful. And the video for the extension is really helpful

Go to happymugcoffee. Cheapest green beans that I'm aware of. They also list when they received them so you don't have to wonder how old they are.

Roasting coffee will stink/smoke your house up. You'll probably want to do your roasting out in the garage if you have one. The extension seems useful but $60 still seems like a lot for what it is.

Coffee bean corral is excellent too.

I would recommend a different roaster.

They used to be my go-to until I found out their employees are treated poorly and the owner has doxxed multiple customers. It's all on Reddit.

While you can roast coffee with an air popper (I've tried it), there is no way you're going to do 8 ounces at a time.

I wish SR800 was also on sale.
I visited this store and I can say that some great people work there. Highly recommend.

I was actually looking at the SR 800 today. Whats the difference? Are you sure you could get away with 7 oz roast safely with the extension and FRESHROAST SR540?
