I would perhaps guess your issue has to do with alignment of the burrs. Right now, depending on the coffee, I grind between 10-18. I do know that SSP burrs make you grind a bit finer from what I hear (I have never actually owned SSPs). However, on a previous grinder I had a similar experience and the issue was burr alignment

Sorry to hear you don't like it. There's plenty of other options around

It's still been good to me! Only gripe I have now later on is some mornings I come to it dead. For some reason, it isn't consistent showing low battery. And, this is USB type c's fault not the scale, but not all USB c chargers will charge this scale. Honestly, I would have rather had rechargeable AA batteries. But that isn't the way of the modern world I guess

Yes! It will fit the 58 in the drip tray, it fits on the smaller Flairs too. If you want to support Flair even further, ever since I posted this video, Flair is offering a version of this scale. Same thing but rebranded to Flair

Yep! All depends on your style. I prefer to start the timer the moment I pull the lever on my Flair 58. Like you say, it's up to the way you dial it in and get it consistent. I could never get the "Weightman" scales to work with pourover because mine have always capped out at 1kg

Lever machines do not have the delay like a BBE - hitting the button on a BBE with no filter in place shows that there is a time gap from you hit the button and water starts flowing. And its not consistent. But very easy to dial in based on when the liquid hits the cup. Great review - keep them coming. The weightman works great for travel and for pre-grind weighing.

@@sjorlando7282 Thank you! I have a video coming up, I just need to review it again before I post. Trying to rope in a bit of the "computing" part of my channel name. Editing isn't my forte and I'm sure folks wouldn't want to watch all the time-wasting footage hehe. Thank you for watching

I do editing - have done some for Gevi. May be able to help :)

@@sjorlando7282 I got my wife helping me now that she has gotten more free time :D she has a decent sized YT channel here already...I just need to get her the content now. I have 1 video that I need to watch to see if I like it, but it's 15 minutes. I think I'll watch it today and upload it

Hi! I do not have control of the drum speed. I don't know about the other videos out there, but if mine is faster, I would think either 1: BocaBoca may not have a consistent speed or 2: other people aren't plugging directly into the wall and using an extension chord. Extension chords would reduce the power going to the roaster and could possibly slow down the drum speed

@@coffeeshopcomputing587 It certainly sounds reasonable, I would prefer to think that it is not a problem with the quality of the product that makes the difference. Do you recommend me to purchase this roaster ? I am very confused about what to buy, this will be the my first roasting machine , so I won't know how to compare it to something else.. Thank you very much!

@@cheapcopy1 Totally understand! I don't think it would cause much of a difference if the drum is a bit faster or slower w/ the BocaBoca. The most important thing is that the beans are getting agitated. As for purchasing, I would actually highly recommend starting with something like the Nostalgia popcorn popper from Sweet Marias. I say this because roasting is an investment in time, knowledge, funds (though it is cheaper to roast than buy roasted coffee!), and frustration. You can make good coffee pretty easily, but it is also easy to make disappointing coffee. The popper is $24, and you can get a 4lb or 8lb sampler pack for $18 or $35. It will at least get you started and help you decide if you want to continue down the rabbit hole. If you are liking it and liking the results, I would certainly recommend this roaster, or the FreshRoast SR800. The risk of the BocaBoca is if something breaks or needs replacing, I would likely need to get random parts off the shelf or acquire it from South Korea. Lots of people sell the FreshRoast so it's easy to get extras or replacements, and there's a lot of good knowledge around the FreshRoast! I personally like the BocaBoca over my FreshRoast though. But some people would disagree. For me I like the flavors from the BocaBoca more and the drum is fun to use. Well, I am thinking about making a new video this weekend anyway, it's been a while. Maybe I'll express these thoughts in a video and more clarity. Hope this helps some!

@@coffeeshopcomputing587 I will definitely consider your offer and hope to do right, thank you very much for your honesty and willingness, I wish you success in everything you do.

@@cheapcopy1 Thank you! If/when you get into roasting, have fun!

I purchased them off of Amazon

I'm glad it helped! I'm sure you will enjoy the version 2. I used to do the same thing with my iPhone. Switching to timing on the scale is much more convenient

Hi there! You can do more than 180g. I have done up to 200, I hear people say 220 is possible too, but I found 180-200 fits my routine better. It's a great roaster. Simple and easy to clean

@@coffeeshopcomputing587 What type of roasts do you do? Do you find it easy to replicate roasts?

@@conradcrisafulli8269 I tend to do lighter and medium roasts. Medium roasts are easy. I'm still learning how to tweak my light roasts to get the flavors I want (I wrote a tiny piece of software to track my roasts). There are temperature warnings for temps passed 220C so I think you need to pay closer attention to your roaster temperature at dark roasts. I have gone up to 2nd crack with no worries, however. Also note that the included thermometer is in celsius. So if you use Fahrenheit like me, it will take some mental conversions. But if you can fit a different thermometer in there that would work As for replication, it is VERY easy to replicate roasts. I have been profiling my coffee a lot more on this roaster and have been able to redo and tweak roasts no problem
