Great suggestion about roasting defects separately. I think early on I was quick to categorize any blemish as a defect where the SCAA scale of 10 broken beans equals to 1 full defect.

When I first learned about sorting, I had the tendency to leave those. The result was that by removing the other defects, I inadvertently increased the percentage of under ripe relative to the whole sample. It's a good idea to do a count of specific categories of defects then roast them separately so you can identify them easily in cupping later on.

I have always wondered what materials would be best and I would also love to check out the aroma vials. I've heard it's kinda hard to sniff past the alcohol at first but once you get the hang of it it really helps. Crazy Jeff hey I’m down for some vacuum sealed coffee tastings.
