So why are multilayer, high barrier plastic bags best for storing green coffee? We have found that a bean's potential cup quality can be degraded by environmental changes, particularly in moisture levels. Green coffee is really a dried seed with an ideal internal moisture level of 10-11%. Without proper storage, green coffee will absorb moisture in a humid environment and lose moisture in an arid environment. A barrier package helps to lock in the bonded humidity and prevent it from equalizing with the ambient climate, preserving cup quality. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: regardless of packaing, it's important to store green coffee in a temperature stable environment away from direct sunlight. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBag Dimensions: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e500g: 20cm W x18cm L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1KG: 18 cm W x 26.7 cm L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2KG: 22 cm W x 40 cm L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5KG: 30.5 cm W x 36 cm L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sweet Maria's","offers":[{"title":"0.5 KG","offer_id":46204804464790,"sku":"BAGS-ECOT-0375","price":1.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1KG","offer_id":46204804497558,"sku":"BAGS-ECOT-0376","price":1.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2KG","offer_id":46204804530326,"sku":"BAGS-ECOT-0377","price":2.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5KG","offer_id":46204804563094,"sku":"BAGS-ECOT-0378","price":2.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/1518\/0182\/files\/ecotact-1_1.jpg?v=1769161929"},{"product_id":"lcd-digital-timer-with-stand-and-magnet","title":"LCD Digital Timer With Stand and Magnet","description":"\u003cstyle\u003e#html-body [data-pb-style=Y8EV9FU]{justify-content:flex-start;display:flex;flex-direction:column;background-position:left top;background-size:cover;background-repeat:no-repeat;background-attachment:scroll}\u003c\/style\u003e\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"row\" data-appearance=\"contained\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\u003cdiv data-enable-parallax=\"0\" data-parallax-speed=\"0.5\" data-background-images=\"{}\" data-background-type=\"image\" data-video-loop=\"true\" data-video-play-only-visible=\"true\" data-video-lazy-load=\"true\" data-video-fallback-src=\"\" data-element=\"inner\" data-pb-style=\"Y8EV9FU\"\u003e\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe thought this new timer was a low cost alternative and the colors were fun.

I haven’t found another timer that you can turn off, saving battery. As for batteries the bad news is they don’t come with the timer.

I haven’t noticed a huge impact on air poppers that “swirl” the coffee. For coffee roasting, we usually recommend a \"swirl\" style popper with a flat metal bottom in the roaster chamber and vents around the sides to rotate the beans. The Nostalgia is a good example of this style. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis glass chimney turns the so-called non-recommended type of air popper into a functional coffee roaster. “Non-recommended” type refers to poppers that discharge hot air straight up from a screen in the bottom of the roast chamber. By themselves, these poppers get too hot, too fast unless you roast a bigger batch and a bigger batch results in coffee beans getting ejected from the rop of the roast chamber. The addition of the glass chimney fixes both issues by allowing for larger batches while keeping the coffee rotating nicely in a vertical way. In fact, adding the chimney and roasting a larger batch could arguably agitate coffee in the roast chamber more effectively than the “swirling” type popper. And better agitation means more even heat distribution and better roasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClassic air poppers used for coffee roasting, like the West Bend Poppery and Poppery II, now sell for $40-$70 on Ebay. The “other” types of poppers can be picked up for a couple bucks at the thrift store or bought new for under $20, so we think using the glass chimney could ultimately make entry into coffee roasting much less expensive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor more information, check out our library article about \u003ca tabindex=\"-1\" title=\"Air Popper Modifications\" href=\"https:\/\/library.sweetmarias.mom\/air-popper-modifications-building-a-chaff-collecting-chimney\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eAir Popper Modifications\u003c\/a\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand blown, manufactured by Westinghouse. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e7.5\" tall, with 2 5\/8” diameter to fit most poppers old and new.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sweet Maria's","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46205055238294,"sku":"PART-CHMY-0385","price":11.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/1518\/0182\/files\/chimney-glass-coffee-roasting-sweet-marias-to-drawing.jpg?v=1769169054"},{"product_id":"k-type-thermocouple","title":"Bare K-Type Thermocouple","description":"\u003cstyle\u003e#html-body [data-pb-style=J04DC9W]{justify-content:flex-start;display:flex;flex-direction:column;background-position:left top;background-size:cover;background-repeat:no-repeat;background-attachment:scroll;border-style:none;border-width:1px;border-radius:0;margin:0 0 10px;padding:10px}#html-body [data-pb-style=FF1Y2FU]{border-style:none;border-width:1px;border-radius:0;margin:0;padding:0}\u003c\/style\u003e\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"row\" data-appearance=\"contained\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\u003cdiv data-enable-parallax=\"0\" data-parallax-speed=\"0.5\" data-background-images=\"{}\" data-video-fallback-src=\"\" data-element=\"inner\" data-pb-style=\"J04DC9W\"\u003e\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\" data-pb-style=\"FF1Y2FU\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are standard, inexpensive “naked” thermocouples, meaning the end has bare wires with an exposed bead.

Having 2 probes allows you to (for example) have one directly probing the mass of roasting coffee beans, and the other to check the roast chamber air temperature (or input air temp ... or output air temp etc). This is similar to how commercial roasters check coffee roasting temperatures, by comparing and monitoring bean temperature, to \"environmental temperature\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExactly how you want to use the ThermoPro, and how you will install it, is going to be up to you. But when we were checking out options for a thermometer that can measure 2 temperature points at once, it was a meat thermometer that stole the show. ThermoPro has great reviews, and the temperature range it can measure works great for coffee roasting. The 15 cm long metal probes are less sensitive than raw thermocouple beads, but are easier to postion and last longer! It's a well-built device, and the AAA battery is included to boot.

Coffee roasters, air roasters in particular, draw a lot of power. To get consistent roasts it’s important to know the voltage of the outlet you are plugging into, the “voltage drop” once the roaster is running, and how many watts it is consuming. You might find one outlet in your house, often closer to your meter, runs hotter, while more remote ones don’t have the same oomph. That impacts your roasting! Many people use electric energy meters (called wattmeters often) to monitor the cost of using an appliance as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSecond reason:\u003c\/strong\u003e How many watts is your roaster using?  THIS is the real reason for me ... because when you change the heat dial setting on your roaster (such as the Freshroast, the Behmor, the Gene Cafe, and the Popper roaster) you can see that change reflected immediately, numerically, on the watt meter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can even log those numbers if you wish, creating roast profiles and repeatable settings measured in watts from this meter. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis meter is a basic version (the brand name version most often used is the Kil-A-Watt). But I have been using this same model for nearly a year when testing batches on the Popper roaster and it works great. I figured if I find it so useful, why not stock them at Sweet Maria’s? \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe watt meter we offer comes with terse yet functional instructions to change modes if you wish, or enter in your cost of energy. That’s great, but I just plug it in and go, using it only to see the voltage on my outlet and the wattage as I make changes during roasting. It has a bunch of other functions, like showing you the cost of running your machine, but I haven't used it that way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you first plug it in you see a V measuring the volts of your outlet. Press the Function key 5x to switch to watt measurement. It should read 0 when the roaster is off, and in about 5 seconds after starting your roast you should see the wattage, and it will update continuously through the roast process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5.25” tall x 2.5” wide\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sweet Maria's","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46376200175766,"sku":"MISC-WATM-0480","price":14.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/1518\/0182\/files\/sweet-marias-watt-meter-dec-2024-1_1.jpg?v=1778150213"},{"product_id":"sweet-maria-s-12-5-kg-ecotact-pentapak-bag","title":"Sweet Maria's 12.5 Kg Ecotact PentaPak Bag","description":"\u003cstyle\u003e#html-body [data-pb-style=G1BOILQ]{justify-content:flex-start;display:flex;flex-direction:column;background-position:left top;background-size:cover;background-repeat:no-repeat;background-attachment:scroll}\u003c\/style\u003e\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"row\" data-appearance=\"contained\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\u003cdiv data-enable-parallax=\"0\" data-parallax-speed=\"0.5\" data-background-images=\"{}\" data-background-type=\"image\" data-video-loop=\"true\" data-video-play-only-visible=\"true\" data-video-lazy-load=\"true\" data-video-fallback-src=\"\" data-element=\"inner\" data-pb-style=\"G1BOILQ\"\u003e\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis beautiful, blue Sweet Maria's bag is what we ship orders of 20 Lbs of green beans in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe were on board at the recent launch of the Pentapak 12.5 Kg Bag, with this custom-printed Sweet Maria’s design.
