Just wanted to give a shout out to Ken for answering all of my questions before getting my 3-e ordered. A+ for the support! Cant wait to get roasting. Thanks Ken.
@@amatijaca Hi there, you'll need 220V for the roaster. Feel free to reach us at info@coffeecrafters.com if you have further questions or we can help with your installations needs.
Love this video! Definitely want to look into this roaster. We were looking at the Aillio Bullet but man this looks much better! We will be calling you to learn more!
Hey guys you also need to adjust for bean loft in drum roasters ;) Great review and video! I'm pondering between buying drum or fluid bed in the future and this really helps.
These are roasters are great for people just staring out on roasting coffee! Most of our customers have little to no roasting experience and these Artisan roasters are designed for easy use. On average, it only takes our customers a couple of roasts to feel comfortable on it. Roasting on our machines really is as easy as turning on a switch and watching it work!
Hana. Have you still taken interest in this model? I know it's been a year since you've commented, but it sounds like you're interested in roasting your own beans for sale. I'm actuality thinking of buying this one in the next few months here in the U. S. to start my own brand. Compared to other brands, I think this one is the one due to the comfortable price point, ease of use, and smooth mechanics. I'm actually sourcing my beans out of Ethiopia(Sadamo), made a contact there already from from my many visits in Addis. Maybe you can help each other and you could assist me with some info for future purposes. Maybe I can assist you in some way of getting one there as I coming to ethi soon. These guys do ship internationally though and he mentioned shipping once to new Zealand for a decent rate already so ethi shouldn't be a problem. Reach out to me if you would. Thnks..
The roaster isn't very loud but depending on the exhaust blower you choose will depend on noise level. The Dayton blower is the quietest of the one's recommended (around 62 decibels or so? The manufacturer - Grainger - should be able to tell you). You could also build a simple sound proofing box if the blower is still too loud.
Yes, you will smell the coffee as it roasts. The exhaust blower will collect the fumes and smoke that is released while roasting but some of the smell will escape.
Our roasters require at least 240v. It is the same used for a standard cloths dryer in the US. We often tell our US customers that they could use the same plug in that they use for their cloths dryer if they get the same power cord.
Very interested in roaster but I may not always have access to a garage and a 220v. Can you guys change it to a 110v if I purchase? Also can I roast indoors near kitchen near the vent?

Thank you Brent, we'll be sure to share the message!
Hi, does this unit need 220V, or will it work on 110V ?

How loud is this? Are you using a lapel mic in this video?
Yes, I do believe a lapel mic was used while shooting this video

Is it possible to smell the coffee as it roasts?
Yes, you will smell the coffee as it roasts. The exhaust blower will collect the fumes and smoke that is released while roasting but some of the smell will escape.
So this is all electric?
Yes! Our roasters use electricity to heat the beans on a bed of hot air. Because they do not use gas at all it produces a cleaner roast.
not working with 110v?
Our roasters require at least 240v. It is the same used for a standard cloths dryer in the US. We often tell our US customers that they could use the same plug in that they use for their cloths dryer if they get the same power cord.

You spelled development incorrectly in the video, not sure I trust the product 😉
Thanks Christopher for pointing that out! We had the video edited this morning and new version is uploading : )
Yeah, I was wondering if the price was a typo as well? lol
