I know that not everyone is guilty of this... but I have seen a lot of used roasters, like really old roasters, listed for sale at a price that is basically or 90% of the price of the same roaster new. WHY? There seems to be a distinct lack of supply of quality used roasters, which I guess...

I have found a fairly good price on an afterburner that is rated for roasters 2 to 7 kilo, it has 400,000 BTU max output, maximum CFM is 200, and I think the unit it self holds 4.5 cubic feet. It is a very basic set point style of incinerator. What would happen if I used this with a 10 kg...

Anyone have any advice, favourite type of hand cart, dolly, pallet jack, that is useful for moving around single bags of green coffee beans? For small roasters that don't have loading machines, what do folks do to lift coffee beans and move around beans? Thanks!

Hi There, looking upgrade and expand roasting capacity. Preference for a Diedrich roaster with some computer profiling potential, ideally between 12 to 24 kg capacity, and not an antique (built in Idaho vs. California). I'm located in Canada. Thanks.
