This is about what the plan was for the roasts performed in my latest class, though anything off R series has a bit more flexibility. The goal is to show both a light to dark progression as well as the impact of some of the different decisions you can make about how to get to the end point. R3 is technically performed at 2 different stations. The non-specification of time prior to yellow is intentional because different machines drive differently in that range and it's chemically uninteresting.

I don't have Comic Sans installed on this machine.

Here's the text moved a little farther to the left, yellow dashed line, orange text in the Penguin Attack font set to a larger size.

While light purple with Helvetica is maybe not the best choice, I think I like this a lot better than background coloring or point annotations.

Trying something a little different for marking event thresholds. The first crack and second crack lines shown here can be extensively customized and animated beyond good sense.

The cat has moved back to the cat seat. It must be time to pet the cat.

Got email from a chemist I took a class from ages ago. We recently met up again at a party and he's using software I wrote to help with some experiments. In some ways the coffee world is pretty small.

The cat has moved to the top of the couch, mostly.

Why is plasmashell suddenly using up a whole CPU core?

Working on visualizations for the next video tonight. Going big into the roasting exercises that went into my most recent class and how you (if you roast coffee) can replicate and adapt these to advance your own roasting skills.

It's snowing.

Slowly playing through Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists. I think I've gotten far enough that it's no longer possible to get a game over.

I am delicious

who's a good cat?

I should use scope guards more.

Coffee samples arrived today. I didn't ask for them but sometimes importers just send me stuff. It's kind of a lot of samples, mostly Ethiopian coffees but a few other also from Africa. I'll have to find some time to run those through the lab roaster and see what I think. Would not mind switching my sample roasting over to one of these some day: https://www.ikawacoffee.com/for-professionals/

With Youmu playable in TH17 will we get an explanation of how half-ghost works as a species? Probably not.

The Bob Wheeler episodes of Night Court are the best holodeck episodes on Star Trek.
