Congratulations

. I found it helpful to put some red nail polish on the eject button since it is line with other buttons I push throughout the roast, nothing worse then ejecting when you really wanted to change temp or fan speed.
Here is a link to Randy G's web site (he writes the manuals for the HT's)
http://www.EspressoMyEspresso.com/
Under how to pages is "How to Profile a Roast With the Hottop KN-8828B Coffee Roaster" & "Add Bean Temperature Monitoring to the Hottop" and under COFFEE COLLEGE is "Hottop Bean Roaster FAQ"
Adding a bean mass probe is very helpful, I added my probe through the rear wall of the roaster, not every body wants to be drilling holes in their machine so Randy's method is simple and bean chute covers are $10.
