Fresh Roast SR300 Home Coffee Roaster, 12.87 X 6.75 X 6.75 Inches
This is the new, replacement model for our favorite little workhorse, the FreshRoast 8, the most popular home coffee roaster with over 60,000 units sold worldwide. It is sturdier and has twice the capacity of its predecessor. This roaster will generate abut 4.6oz of roasted coffee, which using our recommended coffee to water ratio comes out to 72oz of coffee (or 12 6-oz cups).
In our opinion, The FreshRoast SR300 is the best-value, easiest-to-use home coffee roaster available in the market today. You can roast for any kind of coffee maker, including espresso. Before selling them, we tested them extensively and are ready to endorse them. Using our own select green coffee beans we got nice uniform roasts. We heard of a reviewer suggesting that the beans be agitated manually (with a spoon) to avoid scorched beans. We certainly didn't have to do that. We also tried smaller batches (less than two scoops), but found the best results with 120 grams of green coffee (about two scoops), as recommended by the manufacturer.
Please note that this roaster is for American electricity (110 volts, 60 Hz). It will not perform well with an electrical transformer. If you need roasters for European/Asian/South American electricity (220-240 volts , 50hz), we have the 230-volts models available for the Hearthware I-Roast2 and the Gene Cafe. Please make the right selection.
