How often do you see coffee claiming freshness? Well fresh ground and fresh roast are two different levels.
Green beans aren't so easy to get hold of but when you can grab them cos fresh roast and ground coffee is a real treat.
Simply heat the green beans in a non stick skillet, they will start to colour and crackle.
The darkness of the roasted bean will determine the strength of the coffee, a softer French roast comes from a brown bean. Black beans pack a punch.
When roasted to your liking place on two pieces of kitchen roll and give a rub to get the loose husks off the beans.
Grind in a coffee grinder. I have had mine for years and whilst electric grinders are available there is something satisfying about using a bit of elbow grease.
