I love this thread! I've been known to go on long runs with an insulated hydration bag, full of freshly-brewed goodness - I plan on doing the same on a bike (^_^).

I haven't been near a Starbucks since I started roasting at home - even oven-roasted, blade-ground, off-temperature brews are a revelation after a lifetime of bad coffee!

Depending on your roasting method, the smell can be handled pretty well: roasting below the stove fan, beside an open window, or on a BBQ.
