It definitely bounces off the burner when the gas is set at about 50% or above, regardless of airflow. In the first photo (which might be upside down), the gas is set to 60%, only one row is lit and on the lit row, you can see the flame dancing off one of the jets. Second photo is how it...

Hi, We're having an issue with our Ambex YM-5 where about 3-4 pairs of jets (natural gas) go out mid roast and will not go back on. We can get a couple going again if we turn the airflow down all the way, and they will stay lit for a few minutes, but then they want to go our again. We have...

Hi, We just got a Mahlkonig EK43 and wanted to see what settings (1-11) people are using to brew coffee? Did you use the factory settings or did you adjust them for a specific need? We've been doing some trial and error, but are always interested in what other people are doing Thanks!

Hello, I posed this question within a thread once before, but it ended up getting lost because it was a little off-topic. We are getting a Diedrich IR-12 and would like to know if we should get an external chaff collector? The company says it has an internal chaff collector and it's not...

We are looking to sell our coffee at a local farmers market and we can avoid getting a mobile vendor's license if just use a self stable or non-dairy creamer (anything non-refrigerated). I've always found these products to negatively affect the taste of coffee, but people usually buy the...

Hi, I'm interested in hearing other people's technique in filtering large batches (multiple gallons) of cold brew. We have our our preferred ratios down and have been using large buckets to brew and then we french press and serve. It's good, but it's muddy. Yama drip towers are great, but if...

We are looking at purchasing a new roaster and the companies we have narrowed our list to all offer full roasting automation as an option. We have only roasted on machines manually, with no data logging, so it would be a big change for us. The option to automate is intriguing to us. To be...

I would love to revisit this age old questions, especially since both companies claim to have new features on their current new models. We're in the market for a new roaster. We roast on a 5 kilo Ambex now, but we're looking to get a new roaster. Ambex is fine and gets the job done, but we are...

We own a small coffee roaster and are in the process of building up some wholesale clientele. Right now we do not do any flavored coffee and we really don't have any plans to start. By using flavors it changes our food servicing license and we just don't want to kill good beans with a bunch of...

I purchased a roaster from Ambex late last year and now have no idea if I will ever see my roaster or get my money back. I was supposed to get my roaster in February and it's now May and they have yet to communicate with me. I wanted to hear other people's experience with ordering from them...
