I want to start home roasting but I’m not sure where\what to buy as far as beans go as a Canadian buyer. I did a quick check on Amazon (which I try to avoid buying from) and found the cheapest beans are about 14 CAD per pound, but I’m not sure that it’s that good of a deal and I don’t know what quality I’m getting.

Any advice is appreciated.

Edit: found a supplier: https://terracaf.ca/

    Once you get the roasting under control to the point that you’re producing a drinkable cup the provenance of the beans will be not the biggest factor. A competently roasted and properly stored coffee from almost any green beans will beat the pants off of almost any commercially roasted beans stored exposed to oxygen at room temperature for more than a few hours.
