1.0 out of 5 stars Noisy, but OK until it caught the beans on fire, April 23, 2008

By	YellowSocks "Kk." (Ashland, Ohio) - See all my reviews

I bought this roaster for my husband for Christmas. He used it regularly, and even bought large bags of green beans. I asked him to move it to the basement because it was very loud (granted, I have sensitive hearing), and as another reviewer noted, while it's not smokey it will set off a fire alarm. While waiting for guests to arrive one night he was roasting up a batch... same beans as always, same setting, and next we knew the beans were on fire and the basement filled with smoke. I took the beans out and dumped them in a puddle (which he thought was a waste!). The screw is melted, replacement parts on back order... It was great while it lasted, but now it's toast and we'll be looking for something heavier duty.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't bother, April 20, 2008

By	John Hammontree - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this roaster with the high hopes that I would be able to achieve a reliable, even roast. That expectation has been met, however actually getting the thing to not char the beans is pretty much impossible. I got two good sessions out of this thing. Now all I get is ashed beans. I had changed nothing, the exterior temperature was the same, the same type of bean, the same amount of beans and the timer was set the same but, I went from a city roast to little charcoal briquettes after the second use. I began to tweak the settings at this point keeping a written log of my changes and, I have been unable to get back to that city roast or even a decent french roast. I basicly wasted about a 2 pounds of beans and finally gave up. On the plus side the smoke was not let out of the roaster so that part works well. Very little actual smoke comes out during the roasting process but you can still smell the beans roasting. The auger is also a nice feature and I am sure it would benefit your roasting if there were some sort of better control for the fan and heat source. I will be switching back to my old roaster until I can find a better replacement and, I will be trying to return this charcoal maker.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works great, but beware of the smoke!, January 6, 2008

By	B. D. Phillips (Charleston, SC United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I really like the coffee bean roaster. It is very easy to use, and cleanup time takes about 5 minutes. Each batch will make about 1 cup of roasted beans, which for me will last about 4-5 days. The only thing I would caution you about is make sure you use this in a well ventilated area. If you aren't careful, you will set off the smoke detectors in your house. I just stick it out on my back porch and let the beans roast outside and I have no problems. I highly recommend this roaster.
