That's the one I am using. Make sure you watch some youtube vids before using it. The factory setting is 20 on the screen but I am finding I must go much longer than that. The image above was set at 26.
The last 5 minutes is a cool down mode so the time you set is actually 5 minutes less. This unit requires much more time to roast than most others.

You can add or subtract minutes during roast but if you let it hit the 5 minute mark it will jump into cool down mode and then it is too late to add another minute.
