Important Safeguards
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be fol-
lowed, including the following:
• Read all instructions
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
• To protect against fire, electric shock and personal injury do not immerse cord,
plugs or appliance in water or other liquid.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
• Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before
putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appli-
ance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to
nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
• The use of accessory attachments, not recommended by appliance manufactur-
er, may result in fire, electric shock or personal injury.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
• To disconnect, turn any control “off ”, then remove plug from wall outlet.
• Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
Appliances with glass containers:
• The container is designed for use with this appliance. It must never be used on
range top.
• Do not set a hot container on wet or cold surface.
• Do not use a cracked container or container having a loose or weakened handle.
• Do not clean container with cleansers, steel wool pads or other material.
Caution
Regarding your cord set:
• A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becom-
ing entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
• Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and
maybe used if care is exercised in their use.
• If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used, (1) the
marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, (2)
if the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a
grounding type-3 wire cord, and (3) the cord should be arranged so that it
will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on
by children or tripped over.
• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As
a safety feature, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If
the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug
in any way.

This appliance is for household use. Any servicing other than cleaning and user
maintenance should be performed by an authorized service representative.
• Do not immerse base in water or try to disassemble.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to open the
base. No user serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done by autho-
rized service personnel only!
• Check voltage to be sure that the voltage indicated on the name plate on the
bottom of unit agrees with your voltage.
• Keep your hands and the cord away from hot parts of the appliance during
operation.
• Never overfill glass container with green coffee beans. Fill only to “FILL TO
HERE” indicator on glass container or use 2 scoops (43cc) measuring cup
supplied with unit.
Wash glass roasting chamber in warm soapy water with dish-
cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
CAUTION: to reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse
roaster base, its cord or plug in water or other liquid.
Your Fresh Roast coffee bean roaster is designed to roast
approximately 3 ounces of coffee beans at one time. 3 ounces
of roasted beans will yield 14-16 cups of coffee.
Fill 43cc measuring cup to top twice or fill to the “FILL TO
HERE” mark on the metal band around the glass roasting cham-
ber.
Never overfill glass container with beans as poor results will
occur.
Place glass chamber on base unit; place basket and top on glass
chamber.
Turn timer knob to 4-minute mark. Beans will roast 4 minutes,
then cool for 2 minutes.
Allow beans to cool and machine to turn off before removing
top, basket and glass chamber.
When machine shuts off your beans are ready to grind and
brew.
If you find coffee beans are not dark enough (1) Preheat roast-
er approximately 2 minutes before adding beans, (2) Add 1
minute to timed roasting sequence before timer reaches cool
cycle.
CAUTION: over-roasting beans can create smoke. If this occurs,
turn timer knob to “COOL” zone.
If you find coffee beans are too dark, deduct 1 minute from
timer roasting sequence, do not preheat roaster.
During roasting you will hear the beans crackle at approximate-
ly 2-1/2 minutes. At approximately 4-5 minutes you will hear a
rapid crackle. At this point the timer knob should be in the
“COOL” zone. If the timer knob is not in the “COOL” zone man-
ually advance it.
Before each use, always empty the chaff* from the basket and
clean screens with a soft brush.
*Chaff is the outer layer of the coffee bean.
