If your coffee at home scenario involves instant store brand coffee, a cup of water, and a microwave oven, you are missing most of the coffee experience. Coffee growers tend their plantations with care, ensuring that every coffee bean is nurtured to the fullest. Coffee manufacturers roast the beans to the perfect temperature and seal them at the peak of aroma and flavor. Bowing to pressure from home coffee drinkers, the manufacturers take some of those carefully packaged beans, grind them down, crystallize them, and freeze dry them. In other words, they take out what the coffee growers and roasters tried so hard to keep.

The first thing you need for perfect home coffee is you own coffee roaster. These coffee machines let you roast your green coffee beans at home. These home roasters allow you to custom roast several ounces of beans at a time. You'll need to practice with the timer and temperature to get an even roast each time. However, happy customers proclaim that their home coffee is now better than anything available in the stores.

The home coffee roaster doesn't help unless you have some green coffee beans to roast. Green unroasted coffee beans can be purchased in bulk in bags of five pounds or larger. You can choose exactly which coffee you want to roast. Choose a brand such as Colombian, which has large beans and brews a sweet, full bodied rich coffee. You can also pick a Costa Rican bean that is very smooth with a balanced acidity and subtle, chocolate undertones for your home coffee experience.

You've just roasted your home coffee beans. What's next? Activate your home coffee grinder and smell the aroma of hot coffee beans as it fills your home. Grinding the coffee increases its surface area so that the hot water can reach every nook and cranny of the rich dark beans. Quality home coffee grinders cut the beans instead of crushing them.

There is one more step in your home coffee quest: the coffee maker. Drip style home coffee makers are popular. Consider a coffee press instead. Insert your freshly roasted beans into the home coffee press along with hot (not boiling) water, and your home coffee odyssey is finished in 3 to 5 minutes. Next time you have guests over, the steps you use to make coffee at home can become part of the entertainment.
