4. The "C" button (defined further page 9 and 10) allows you to more accurately control and understand
where you are in a roast, especially in cases where you have a bean type that migrates from 1C to 2C
seamlessly. This also helps to prevent you from over-roasting your beans.
The times are approximately the time it takes from start of the very first snaps of 1
nd
start of 2 crack (2C) for regular coffee. Decaf and aged coffees, such as Malabar, roast faster and get
darker more quickly

6. Quicker cool-down option: After the beans have ceased snapping (approximately 1:30 minutes after
cooling has started), while keeping the system on cool, simply open the front door. Doing this will allow
a greater airflow over the beans. The one drawback is that a small amount of chaff will blow out past the
chaff tray. NEVER
REMOVE THE ROASTING DRUM AND COOL THE BEANS. Stopping the system before
reasonable cooling may damage the system's internal electronic components.
7. Know your beans. Hard Bean (SHB - strictly hard bean or HG- high grown) vs. Soft Bean is based on
the altitude at which beans are grown. Bean suppliers often post data about grades, such as SHB, HG,
etc. when describing the bean characteristics.
