Pleasantly surprised!
This Mophom Coffee Roaster was more of an impulse buy, and I'm not regretting it. I've been coffee-roasting at home for a few years, and so, I kinda knew what I was getting into. I usually roast Ethiopian beans with a focus on flavor rather than color. The Mophom is a hot air type of roaster, and you can not control the temperature or fan speed, but that's where the fun begins. To dial it in and find a sweet spot, I was ready to waste a few batches of Ethiopian Sidamo Guji (washed ). The first batch was 70g for 16 minutes from a cold start. 1st crack was rolling at about 7 minutes, and the end result was a full city roast with a loss of flavor and about a 19% weight loss. The second batch was 70g for 12 minutes with a 5-minute preheat. As expected, 1st crack came sooner at about 5 minutes and had much better results that were closer to a city + roast, and that's where the flavor notes started to come through. The third and final batch was the sweet spot for me. 70g for 8 minutes with a 7-minute preheat. 1st crack was rolling at about 3.5 to 4 minutes. The end results were a nice surprise. I got a nice city roast with 15.5% weight loss. After a two-day rest, I was enjoying a flavorful pour over Ethiopian. This coffee roaster is easy to use, easy to clean, and the perfect size for those who don't need to roast large amounts of coffee at one time.

Novice roaster having fun!
I've been having a great time roasting green coffee beans with this air roaster! I don’t drink coffee anymore—too many years of abusing my body with energy drinks—but my wife still enjoys her daily cup. While I don’t partake, I absolutely love the smell of freshly roasted coffee.I’ve been roasting a pound of green coffee beans from Dean’s Beans, 70 grams at a time. Since my wife prefers a dark roast, I’ve been experimenting with different times:17 minutes – Too light.25 minutes – Burnt, started smoking around 22:30 (set off the smoke detector).22 minutes – A little smoke, but no alarms.21:40 minutes – The latest batch, waiting for my wife’s verdict.Once she tries the last two roasts, we’ll fine-tune the timing—maybe a 21:50 batch next. I’m also looking into buying unroasted beans locally, as shipping costs were nearly as much as the beans themselves. That said, they arrived well-packaged.I’m giving this roaster 4 stars due to a faint buzzing sound that starts as soon as it’s plugged in—it’s a bit concerning, so I only keep it plugged in while roasting. A quick tip: You need to hold the power button for a few seconds to turn it on.Cleaning is a breeze—the included brush works well, and the roasting cup dismantles easily for washing. Watching the beans expand as they roast is fascinating, and so far, I haven’t had any get kicked into the chaff collection tray.Overall, a fun and engaging way to roast coffee at home!

Transformed Our Coffee Experience - MOPHOM Electric Coffee Bean Roaster
After using the MOPHOM Electric Coffee Bean Roaster for about 4-5 weeks, our coffee routine has taken a delightful turn. Previously, we were using an old Bunn drip pot, but combining this roaster with our existing conical burr grinder and a French press has elevated our coffee to another level. My wife and I both agree that our coffee now tastes significantly better.At first, the smell of roasting beans seemed a bit like burning, but as I learned about the roasting process - the 'first crack', stages of roasting, and dealing with chaff - it became a comforting and familiar scent. It's potent, so it might take some adjustment if you're new to roasting.The roaster can handle 3 to 3.5 of the included plastic spoonfuls per cycle due to the bean expansion during roasting.A roasting cycle takes about 15-20 minutes plus some time to cool off. The roaster is LOUD so be prepared for that and maybe do your roasting at a time when you are not in the coffee prep room/area of your home or office.An important tip for the best flavor is to let the coffee rest for 24-72 hours post-roast to allow it to off-gas and mellow, which really does make a difference.This roaster isn't just for coffee; it's versatile enough for roasting other items like popcorn and nuts, though we've stuck to coffee. If you're looking to dive into the world of home coffee roasting, this machine is a fantastic gateway. It's made us more serious about our coffee preferences, and we're now exploring further tweaks to perfect our brew. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to enhance their coffee experience at home.
