Oven with perforated tray
Toast in the house oven with a sturdy tray. Easy and hands-free, though hard to hear the cracks.
- Indicative price
- €10–20
- Capacity
- 150–300 g
With a perforated tray, or a pizza mold with holes, you can toast in the home oven. It extends 150-300 g of green coffee in a single layer and spins at 230-250 ° C for 15-20 minutes, moving the tray every few minutes to match.
It's simple, but the air in the oven doesn't move the grains and the nut comes out somewhat uneven. Also, with the door closed it's hard to hear the cracks, so guide yourself by the color and the smell.
- In favor: cheap and hands-free.
- Please admit a reasonable amount.
- Against: unequal touch.
- Against: smoke can make alarms jump and leave a smell in the house.
Safety: ventilate well, do not walk away from the oven and remove the shell from the bottom at the end. Chill the grains quickly, from one colator to another, and have a fire extinguisher by hand.
A perforated tray costs €10-20. Cheapest alternative: a large bottom pan.
This coffee bar runs on coffee… literally. And the odd ko‑fi.
