Roasting coffee will create smoke so you need a way to get that out of your house. You could also roast near a window with a fan on. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have you ever wondered how you can get the best tasting coffee possible without spending a ton of money? The answer cannot be found in the coffee isle or your grocery store. The answer is in roasting your own coffee at home. It is easier than you think, and you probably have all the tools to do it! All you need is a cast iron skillet, a stove (kitchen or camp), a wooden spoon or whisk, and the coffee beans. Simple heat up the pan to around 400 degrees and drop the coffee in! Continually stir the coffee so you do not scorch it and wait till you get to first crack! Once you are past first crack you can take the coffee off for a delicious light roast, or you can keep roasting till you get to a medium or dark roast. Be careful though, once you reach second crack you could easily burn the coffee! That is it. It is super easy to roast coffee in your own home. Roasting coffee also makes for a great and thoughtful gift! Happy roasting!!!
