I've been roasting for around half a year now and currently working at a roastery. I brought in a new coffee, a Peru Washed, but for some reason it has been crashing every time near the end of the roast. I like to stay medium-light -> medium with my roast degrees, so with an 18lb batch on our roaster, I'll end at a BT of around 405-410ish with 2:00-2:30 development time.

This Peru crashes every time around 395-400 and it's driving me insane! I have tried letting the beans ride through first crack and making less adjustments. My new theory is that I need to charge them at a higher temp. For naturals I'll charge at 400 typically, and for this coffee I charged at 410. Should I charge at 420?

If anyone could shed some light on what is going on, it'd be a huge help. I still have a lot to learn so any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

23m. Havent been diagnosed yet, but I’m pretty sure I have internal hemorrhoids.

Quick context:

Due to a diet deficient in fiber, I would find myself constipated a lot, to the point where bowel movements took awhile and would bring a tear to my eye.

I’m assuming the straining caused the hemorrhoid(s) and after a bm I can see what looks like a minorly thrombosed internal hemorrhoid. I usually have blood in my stool (depending on how constipated I am) and i‘ll see a streak of blood in the same spot.

Now to my question:

It seems as if my groin lymph nodes are swollen and I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with swollen lymph nodes due to hemorrhoids?

When I say swollen, they’re not visible, but upon feeling them they seem more prominent than normal.

Planning on seeing a doctor soon and currently self-treating with mayinglong cream and increased dietary fiber.
