Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

Do find that you get better results roasting yourself?

Compared to supermarket and most small scale roasters I've tried, orders of magnitude better. At least I can roast everything in my preferred light-to-medium range instead of finding that those "filter roast" beans are acrid charcoal. Nowadays I can even pull off a fruity acidic citrusy bean most of the time.

However I'm lucky to know a great, if slightly expensive and sometimes inconsistent, roaster a few towns over. So better... Maybe not. Cheaper, hell yes.
