Home roasted coffee success

My second try at roasting green coffee beans in a cheap K-mart popcorn maker was successful. This morning I roasted half a cup of PNG Organic beans to a medium roast and made a perfect ristretto.

The roast could have been a bit darker but at least this time I didn't burn it. I took the roaster outside as it blows the fine husk of the beans (paper) everywhere and puts out a lot of heat. Roasting time was very quick - only about 4 minutes. The result speaks for itself though. I think I'll go have another...
