"I am halfway into this new book on roasting by Raimond Feil and can only wish that this would have been available when I started roasting. The best books are always the ones where a passionate personality meets experience, and this is certainly one of them. Can't wait to read the last part."

"Great read so far and definitely a super Xmas gift for coffee lovers. I couldn't find anything negative. Loved the bit about salivating! Could not keep myself from peeking at the first crack detection hack for the Loring 35. Very savy! (Much smarter than my way of visually chasing movement in the sample trier and getting only outliers.) And of course chapter 6. Very well written, refreshingly uncomplicated, non-magisterial, thoroughly usable hands-on book that comes from the heart."

"This Book can really push beginners in the right direction as well as provide advanced roasters with new ideas and thoughts on roasting craft. I appreciate that you totally opened your work and experience without any fear of rivalry which demonstrates your passion for coffee."

"Reading Feil’s book reminds me of the practical, hands-on education one gets when they first start working under a veteran coffee roaster. In my estimation, it’s a valuable addition to the existing literature on coffee roasting. Veteran and aspiring roasters alike will benefit from reading this book."

"Loving this book. Raimond has packed this book full of thoughts provoking material, making me take a step back and have another look at how I'm doing things. Some great little hints on roasting with a Loring as well as an extensive sample roasting section. Such a welcome addition to the collection of coffee literature."

"I really enjoyed it! You have done a great job of putting together such a complicated topic in such a simple but full of important info way! I admire how exactly and mathematically you planned the roasting with 1st at 10mins for all the coffees. There must be a lot of knowledge of all the variables behind, and this will be my next challenge: to plan the roast and being able to predict, and your book was really inspiring for this."

"This Roasting book is an ocean of information and I guess everyone who is interested in roasting has to read the book."

"The book is on fire! A third of the way into it. Will try somethings out on my sample roaster this weekend. I really like your approach. I want that juiciness I’ve experienced here and there. And now that it is repeatable is exciting."
