On roasting, my first batch or type of coffee was rather mild in comparision to the roasts that I usually buy in the store. I was somewhat disappointed. My second batch hower is a different variety and much stronger, which is what we are use to. While the coffee is definately smoother, it still has the punch that I am use to / need.
The first few roasts with the original style of beans I only took to a city roast, the second batch I took farther into a full city +. I also noticed that the second variety produced much less chaff than the first type of bean which was surprising.
Now I need a better grinder and leave the blade for dubbing but don't want to spend $200 on one. Any ideas in the $75 price range?

If you have access to a Costco, they have a very, very, good burr grinder, for less than $40.00! Fully adjustable, based on the old "1 to 10" scale, for coffee coursness.
