It was a long, cold and blustery weekend here in Minneapolis, but we had a grand time roasting coffee and talking coffee roasters. Pictures below.

Johan and the lovely and gracious Lisa braved the elements and ran the roaster outside for several hours:

Nick manned the booth, handed out coffee samples, and chatted up our machines:

We finally figured out how to use the trailer as a windbreak:

Michael quickly discovered the cooling trays were filled with chocolates:
