Ask HN: Who wants freshly roasted coffee?

by lamroger on 4/16/2025, 3:24:31 PM with 2 comments

Hey y'all - I consider myself a tinkerer and in the vein of doing things that don't scale, I want to send you coffee that I roast.

I have a couple bags of green beans to choose from.

If you want to print a picture or your art on a label, send me an image!

If you prefer a roast level, let me know too.

* Colombia, Finca La Riviera Sudan Rume * Colombia, Finca La Rivera Gesha * Colombia, Finca Milan Anaerobic Passionfruit Co-ferment * Vietnam, Lostus SHG * China, Yirong * Mystery Blend

It's free (or send a donation to charity). Send me an email - me@<username>.com or msg me on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/lam-roger/

Here's a video of me roasting on my patio applying some object detection to the beans to get the average color - https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7123095011449085952/?originTrackingId=Eqpm7A0vQ1Cu2G1j7msaYg%3D%3D

Thanks!

Do you have a technical write up? Is the object detection method explained in the repository? I think a slightly more technical artice would get more traction here. But don't forget to include the video!
