Part 2: Know Your Roaster
In the box you should receive a roaster, roasting drum, chaff tray, and cleaning brush.
Roasting drum : The roasting drum opens at one end to be filled with green coffee beans. One end has a square
peg (red arrow- #1), which can only fit into the motor drive (inside right-not shown). The other end has a
grooved round peg (blue arrow- #2) that fits into the roasting drum slot (purple arrow- #3).
Chaff Tray: The chaff tray collects chaff that falls from the roasting drum or is pushed into the tray by the
cooling fan. The tray can also be used as a “dust pan”. Before inserting the chaff tray, check that the flap is in a
“roast” position. It should be pointed slightly downward so that as the roasting drum rotates, it will not catch
and jam. Next, depress the spring-loaded handle downward (see below). Slide the chaff tray under the roasting
drum, releasing the handle after the tray is in place.
Proper Chaff Tray Placement:
To ensure the chaff tray does not impede the rotation of the roasting drum,
proper placement is critical.
Cleaning the Chaff Tray
: Remove the chaff tray by depressing the handle to flatten the vanes and slide the
tray out of the chamber. Swing the flap up (shown below in 4b) from its “roast” position (4a) to allow the tray
contents to be dumped. Remember to move the flap back into a downward “roast” position (4a) in preparation
for your next roast.
