I go through a pound a week and have a 1st gen Behmor 1600 that won't quit. Roasted 3 lbs of Rwandan Kivu Friday night

I keep thinking about a drum roaster, but am of the mind "if it ain't broke..." My superautomatic holds about 10 oz of beans, so 8 oz at a time is perfect. I haven't tried anything from Rwanda yet, but I haven't really found an African coffee that I truly like yet. On this journey, I've found out that my favorites regions are Nepal, Haiti, and Yemen. Unfortunately, I think other people are finding those less-than-common beans, because their price has been rising as of late. Used to be I could get Haiti for around $10/pound, now it's $20-ish.
