the nerd Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 223 pages of coffee talk on a bike site!.Well I probably know how to use my coffee machine a bit better than my MTB..Iv got a San Remo Trevisio LX, a Casadio Enea grinder and a Gene roaster! I see some guys have pretty sweet set ups with GS3s ect, but my best money spent was my Gene roaster!!http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r1/YZ12588/Mobile%20Uploads/20141112_143447_zpseb630ab4.jpg I Just bought a west bend popper to do some roasting at home :-)
wacker Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 I Just bought a west bend popper to do some roasting at home :-) The roasting part is actually fairly straight forward, its getting the beans out the popper and cool fast enough thats tricky!
the nerd Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 The roasting part is actually fairly straight forward, its getting the beans out the popper and cool fast enough thats tricky! Building it into a wooden box with some sort of swivel, that once it over I can yank a pin out and drop the beans into the cooling tray... Thats the idea anyway ha ha ha

Where did you buy the roaster? I was looking at a Solar 2kg roaster but the Gene is much simpler to install - basically plug & play vs proper installation.
wacker Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 I bought my Gene from Dirkus at BeanRushcoffee.co.zaI can PM you his number, he is very reasonable and i know he has a few about to arrive! I have had mine nearly 2 years and probably roasted about 60kg of coffee at least with it! BDF 1

Brian Fantana Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 I had a few meetings in Europe last week, and I purchased very good beans and two very tasty espressos from this roaster/cafe in Amsterdam. BDF and Oxter 2
