Example roast log: Ethiopia washed light

This sample shows how a saved roast becomes a repeatable profile instead of a forgotten stopwatch session.

Profile summary

Batch: 250g. First crack: 7:45. Drop: 9:30. Drop temp: 402°F. Development time ratio: 18.4%.

Cup result

Fast, clean profile with floral aroma, citrus brightness, and tea-like sweetness. Good candidate for a repeat light filter roast.

What to change next time

Try a slightly longer Maillard phase if the acidity feels too sharp, or keep the profile if the cup is already balanced.

Questions

Common questions

Can I create profiles like this?

Yes. Create a free account, run a roast, mark milestones, add notes, and save it to your roast history.

Can I use a sample as a preset?

The built-in preset library includes similar targets, and saved roasts can become reusable presets.
