Roasting profiles and results

This is the base roasting profile that I follow (thanks to Jeff).  I think it has definitely changed what I am producing.  First crack happens at approximately 200 degrees and second crack at 220 degrees.  I cool in the popper, taking them out once the temperature decreases to 40 degrees, that takes approximately 2 minutes.

Here are my lastest results using the above profile.
