Hi! New member starting with SR540. I am brand new and slowly getting better results with this roaster. I am interested in any roasting pointers.

Min specifications to run Artisan
mtbizzle	#1 Posted on 05/06/2020 10:17 PM
1/4 Pounder Posts: 101 Joined: April 22, 2020	I have read before that some laptops will not run Artisan smoothly. And I just read that Artisan no longer supports 32 bit OS, only 64 bit. I've been keeping my eye out for a very cheap used laptop, specifically for Artisan, and am now noticing that I can't just get any laptop that is a great deal, I need to get certain min specs. Does anybody have any ideas on this? Any advice on what to look for, or how to find it? Roast: Kaldi wide, SR800 + projects Grind: Lab sweet, Bentwood, giota w/ MP burrs, Commandante Pull: Decent, La Pavoni, Elektra Microcasa a Leva, Faemina anno 60, Kim Express

Or, build a roaster dedicated panel with RaspPi and a small cheap 7" screen for less than $100. Or, use greencardigan Android app. But, as already wrote in other thread, all of above are over-engineering for a popper machine. I would try first the magic of computer free roasting.

For under $200 , maybe under $150, you can get an older, reconditioned work style laptop, 64 bit, i5 or i7 core, 2.5+ ghz, 4gb ram, wiped, new load of windows 10. 8 yrs old hardware...... Possibly no longer supported by mfg......but good enough for artisan, web browsing, netflix. You can probably get same thing.....for under $100 not reconditioned. All you need for artisan. Look for reconditioned laptops on amazon Edited by Mbb on 05/12/2020 5:33 AM

I am still on W7, and don't intend to move to W10 ever. Also, sometimes I simply like more older versions, for various reasons.
