A new breed of home roasters that lets you set the roasting profiles (parameters) that allow precise control of how the roaster takes care of your green coffee.

Bottom Line: If you learn to use this roaster as a tool, and not as a set and forget machine, it will meet your needs.

Bottom Line: Buyer beware!
Tom Be (quality: 7.2) 02.08.2005 Rating: 4.8
Bottom Line: It works but build quality is poor, I'd rather have spent money on a PID for a popper.

Bottom Line: Well built, with an integrated thermometer, but loud, and with a temperature controller that could be much smarter at compensating for changing ambient conditions.

Bottom Line: A roaster that roasts! Color me amazed!
Christopher Keene (quality: 8.7) 01.28.2005 Rating: 8.2
Bottom Line: The ne plus ultra of home hot air roasters. The most advanced stage in the evolution from popcorn popper to coffee roaster.
Adam Reisner (quality: 6.0) 01.27.2005 Rating: 7.0
Bottom Line: if you buy one plan on summer roasting or indoor roasting and hunkerdown if you ever need hearthware support.
Chris Ward (quality: 5.5) 01.25.2005 Rating: 8.6
Bottom Line: A coffeegeek's dream: Use the basic settings and get better and fresher roasts than you're used to, or fiddle endlessly in persuit of perfection.

Bottom Line: A terrific consumer roaster with programmable roasting profiles.
