Hi I was not able to keep up with my SCTO family demand was over 900g/week and remains strong. I basically stooped roasting in 2015 since I could not keep up. I recently converted it to a DRUMTC and it works well I have roasted upto 600g. https://youtu.be/... Look forward to this group and figuring out how to get a probe in the bean bed! |

So, what was primarily you issue with former SCTO setup(s), not able to stir enough greens ? |

Yes essentially had I found Bob's work I would have just added a more grunty motor to the SCTC that said I have the option still! https://www.bobbo... https://www.bobbo...-build.htm Edited by renatoa on 04/27/2023 1:28 AM |

Stir crazy base has it limitation, not allowing the best air circulation. Using a perforated pan, things can be improved significantly, allowing 500 grams without issues, like in the example below: |

The volume of your roaster is to large With modifications to the TO element baffle plate and reducing the volume to below 9 lt it can potentially roast 1kg My agitation style setup is roasting 1kg every week and my friends drum roaster that we built roasts 1 kg as well We used a car window winder motor for spinning the drum and we used the same pot set as the agitator type roaster KK I home roast and I like it.

The roaster machine is built using as the outer wall the extension ring that could came as an accessory with your turbo oven. This way solved the perfect tightness on top joint with the lid, without any custom gasket. And for the bottom used a pizza tray of the same size, i.e. 32cm |

Bob successfully roasts 18 ounce batches but does not have the air circulating below the beans!

Close, as in using a TO as heat source. Different roast chamber layout and airflow. |

OK I have roasted about 23lbs and reverted back to my 2.0 double walled bowl format. Very good results without a bean bed probe.[url] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEtD7P1MQe8[/url] That said ... Turn on closed captions https://youtu.be/... this is the next branch of DIY roasting! I invited him to this group we shall see I see he has a vent on the bottom to catch the Chaff and allow the heat gun to flow https://www.youtu...q4alYBD5p8 Edited by DRUMTC on 06/24/2023 10:26 PM |
