Approximate Time Owned 15 years Rating Overall 4/5 Reliability Rating 4/5 Value for the Price 4/5 Usability Rating 4/5 Aesthetics Rating 4/5 Detailed Review With hands on roasting, this roaster is capable of producing some very fine roasts. The temp and time can be adjusted during the roast. The down side of this roaster is the cooling. When the beans have been roasted to perfection and the roast is dropped, they continue to bake. So one must anticipate this by watching the beans carefully: when one bean begins to express a pin head of oil, the cool button is pressed, the lid is opened and a giant cooling fan is trained on the roaster to cool it faster!
