Corretto roaster, or how to start roasting for less than $100.00

It's all a matter of personal preference. I've brewed beans fresh off the cooling tray, and I've waited 3-4 days. If you are French-pressing the coffee, give it two or three days to degas. Other methods (drip, moka, etc) are a lot more forgiving.

k. During the week, I brew 3/4 a pot of drip in the morning and take my 20oz press to work for an afternoon cup. I really need to get my hands on a 'cheap' ($50-$75) grinder that can give me consistent grinds in the coarse range. I don't care about making espresso(yet), so the majority of grinders out there aren't for me
