GOT SOME BAD NEWS!

oh my gosh no Danielle's gonna be pretty sad though when I tell her I have bad news I don't want it [Music] what's up guys it's gonna be a good day today [Music] [Music] [Music] now that's good time to get the day going things to do some things to work on today so we'll try to knock that out like first thing this morning so we can have the rest of the day to just enjoy with the kids the family get these kids outside because they're already getting a little squirrely in here oh my gosh no maybe today's not gonna be such a good day after all that's disappointing news so I just uh let's check out my email this morning as I do every morning waiting through all the uh ads and spam mail that I probably should just unsubscribe from but it's easier to just ignore it and pass right by I put up an email from the people who roast the beans that I used to make this delicious Heavenly amazing coffee here I'll pull it up actually on my phone so you can see what it says ignore the line going through it every ending is a new beginning so basically what this email says is that they've loved roasting coffee the last few months their lives have kind of shifted and it's just not been um something they can continue to do anymore because of work I'm kind of starting a home Church um you know spending time with family which I understand I get that working a full-time job and then doing making coffee that's a lot so that's unfortunate though because I loved their coffee beans and I love supporting them you know I wanted to support someone who is doing something new and going out and taking risks so we loved every month being able to buy coffee from them oh so now that means figuring out something else Danielle's gonna be pretty sad though when I tell her [Music] those are my underwear did you know I was coming did you hear me that's not even funny not cool at all uh I have bad news I don't want it because this is enough this post-trip laundry it's the worst because like it's just all of it it's just you get back you want to just do nothing because you're so tired from a trip and then you have to do extra because you did nothing the whole week before I just got an email yeah from revia coffee and long story short they are not roasting beans anymore I don't receive that that's where we get our coffee beans that's our supplier that was our hookup when the world goes crazy and ends and there's an apocalypse we had the Inn with the coffee beans and we were going to be making lattes in our bunker or whatever trading at them for valuable commodities lattes in exchange for the beans no good job what no John for like anything that you might need in a post-apocalyptic world we had the bean hook up to make the lattes so we were going to be slinging the coffee everybody would want it so they would give us they'd give us everything they had oh so I have we have a Mansion Just because the latte we'll have plenty rich um so I guess there's really only one uh so I guess you've got to learn a new hobby I have no idea how it even where to even begin I don't even know how they do it I guess we have to start growing I gotta go start my own coffee beans I have looked that up it only takes three years to start getting your own beans from your coffee trees or the plants whatever they are so yeah let's start good idea okay so today is ketchup day obviously Ketchup Day not like the condiment but like we're catching up uh we just got back from a camping trip it was amazing we meant to Vlog but to be honest when we celebrate Sukkot like our little faith community comes together we all are camping for a week and it's like the most beautiful amazing time and we kind of just go all in with friends and family and it's that's all that's all we just didn't pick up the camera because we were just living in it and enjoying so many conversations and it was just the best so anyway we're back we got aftermath to deal with thankfully the campers here and we don't have to unload it immediately like we did last year when we weren't allowed to have it in our yard or in our driveway because of the HOA so this year we kind of slowly unpacking that but we got dishes to catch up on things to put away in the living room laundry to do that's what we're working on also I'm working on something else it's consuming about 56 of my brain right now John where are you in the bathroom okay listen I don't call this you can get a coffee roasting thing you're I'm gonna get something else what are you getting he's gonna learn how to roast coffee and find the things or whatever you need will you do that you I'm so proud of you your accomplishments I'm gonna buy a cow I think I found one oh my gosh I've been looking for like two days I've been looking we're ready uh for dairy cow and I well we're not ready yet but I'm thinking let's light the fire and then like you know that's like how I like to do things it's like let's just go ahead and light the fire and then figure it out real quick before everything burns down great so so I'm gonna be milking a cow over here while I'm roasting right into your coffee thing imagine it freshly roasted beans and fresh we got a lot to learn but you find your coffee stuff I'll find a cow [Music] thank you I've got news good news this time so I reached out to my friends who had the Roasting Company and just wanted to say best of luck thanks for all the beans just kind of chatting a little bit and then I thought are they still going to use their roasting equipment and so I asked him long story short they have a small one pound roaster that they are selling me and so in the next few days I'll be getting my own roaster uh my friend John is gonna help me get started give me all his tips and tricks and best practices and get me on my way to make some of my own beans guys it's here it's outside waiting for me right now my roaster has arrived and I couldn't be more excited [Music] here it is let's take it inside [Music] where's my knife I need my knife thank you foreign but that'll do all right let's get this bad boy open it's my coffee roaster [Music] is this what's this thing so my friend John sent me these beans two pounds of these unroasted beans so I can kind of practice and get comfortable with this machine so I appreciate that thank you John [Music] well here goes nothing foreign like home alone you know when he goes to the basement and there's the thing is ah the furnace and it's making all the noise and it's all fiery that's this just in like miniature size so they're supposed to start being like some kind of the first crack is what it says there's like two cracks there's a first crack that happens I guess and it's I don't know exactly what's happening but it's supposed to be a first crack when it really is starting to um first crack these are the first distinct popping sounds indicating that the roasting is beginning to occur as the bean structure changes with the expansion and they emit their water content via steam these sounds may be sporadic then the second crack which apparently is supposed to be usually there's like a little Gap in between the cracks will stop the second distinct set of sounds will also be initially sporadic but usually more rapid pronounced and higher pitched than the sounds of the first crack if allowed to continue into second crack the interval between cracks will become increasingly rapid creating a crackling sound similar to rice cereal after milk has been added so think about rice crispy cereal and it's that's apparently where this is Netflix is like and you're never supposed to Rose past 10 seconds um into the second crack because then I'll start could cause you know a fire and burn it so I haven't heard the first crack yet I don't know how long it's supposed to be let's see so my friend sent me like the there's one like a light roast how to make a light roast which I'm not trying to make a light roast but not now but I would like to have it eventually it's a little cheat sheet it'll tell you how to do it so maybe I'll look up some more of these and find some more recipes if you will so it's also about I read your sense of smell it starts off I think it's a little more like green smelling maybe grassy if you will but then you can start smelling the the differences um so now it's 30 seconds left I haven't heard the first crack I feel like I should have heard the crack so I'm gonna I don't know to bump the time up a little bit forget how to do that trying to bump the time up by doing something wrong [Music] so I mean it it's hard to tell what it looks like it's definitely Browner than it was when I put them in there so I don't know I just didn't hear any cracking the first crack you know I didn't hear the first crack but maybe I was missing it maybe it's maybe it was happening I didn't realize it [Music] I roasted these a little bit longer and they look like coffee beans that have been roasted so that's a plus that's a start I have a feeling that I need to do something different but uh [Music] nice [Music] I don't know this fragrant I definitely didn't expect to perfect this on the first go-round they look like coffee beans that have been roasted and I'm gonna try them a little nervous to have a feeling they're not going to be good but they don't have a fragrance scent to them it's going to be digging in learning more about this thing and so I'll keep you guys posted on how this all turns out but right now let's make a cup of coffee [Music] yeah I don't think I roast these beans enough that thing was struggling to grind these beans but you know what it smells actually really good so I don't know maybe it's like a super light roast we gotta find out and this is probably not the best way to find out if it tastes good with just a Mr Coffee coffee maker but it's all I have on hand right now and um I'm just gonna test it out well that basically looks like tea dip see what we got here I mean I guess that's what a light roast would do right light colored coffee light roast probably not this light this is extra light roast smells like something it's not going to taste good [Music] I mean it's not the worst thing I've ever tasted definitely like sour kind of taste to it like it's still like undercooked you know under roasted however I can taste the potential in there I can taste it well I got my work cut out for me but I am determined to figure this thing out and make it taste really really good I already looked up some stuff since while this was even Brewing right here just to see what other people do and their settings they use are like completely different than what the actual manual says so I'm going to go back try another batch here maybe tomorrow maybe later tonight and I'll keep you guys posted on how it's turning out because it has to turn out good that's the thing is it has to turn good um I just need to get with my friend too he's he's like been doing this long enough that he could tell me probably hey yeah actually do this instead of that so I just want to try it out myself see if I could figure it out I'm always I decided to see if I can actually um you know do it myself it's a little arrogant or prideful maybe isn't it it's no problem I'm reaching out for help people anyways love you guys keep you posted on my coffee adventures and we will see y'all later bye foreign [Music] [Music]
