The magic smoke came out of the SC/CO

top today.
I thought the Sunpentown Nano Carbon Blah Blah Whatever it was top would last more than a couple years, but I got my dough out of it, I suppose.
It died mid roast, so now the wife and I are subject to a possibly underdone or baked roast of a Ugandan/Tanz Peaberry mixture.

Hey! I finally figured out what a SC/CO is. Thanks!

Sorry about yours, though.

I built mine (SNR/CO) [Salton Nut roaster/Convection Oven]right before my back surgery. I knew I would have all that off time to learn to roast.....

Looks kind of like this

Regrets on the departure of you old friend. By some miracle my old Galloping Gourmet keeps working; I think it must be into it's 5th year. I could suggest ebay cruising for a GG but, fact is, you don't hear about COs of any brand crapping out very often.

What's your next move? Retirement?

Maybe Resispa will start a Hottop roaster pass and let us all enjoy his?

Seems unfair to hoard such a nice thing.

I'm kinda surprised my Freshroast has lasted this long as I haven't paid much attention to the warning about letting the roaster cool off between roasts and have overfilled it more than once to get darker roasts.

I think I have a spare CO in the garage I scored at a garage sale for 5 bucks. I have no idea if it works, but I gambled. If the replacement roasts a hundred or so pounds as well, it is still money well spent.

And it is time to roast some Guat tomorrow.
