£50 seems like a lot, is it worth it over emulation?

For me roasting your own beans is a case of “easy to do, difficult to master”. It’s a great hobby dont get me wrong, but the way this post is phrased makes it seem like you’ll be getting amazing results from the get go.

There’s a huge amount of trial and error and even with the best will in the world you might not be able to come close to what a local roaster can provide.

Shameless self plug incoming!
