Reading about it all sounds very daunting. I am not sure I want to fill my place with smoke. I thought the machines were easier to use, but it seems like unless you are getting something commercial you need to fiddle quite a bit with them.
I've been getting BB beans from their main roastery for years. They originally sold out of a small garage down the block from my office. Might be a location thing as my beans are not dark at all.
As for home roasting, check out Sweet Maria's here. Lots of info and they sell green beans too. I've read you can use a cheap air popcorn popper (which I actually have) to home roast. I've never been brave enough to try.
