Does the SR500 only do up to 1/2lb?

Yea, I looked it up last night. The Behmor will do up to a lb, but it’s better suited for 1/2lb batches. There’s tips/tricks you can do to roast larger batches.

I have a Behmor and only roast in 1/2lbs batches as it just works better that way.

Do you have the original 1600, or the update 1600 Plus? Wondering if it’s worth updating to the Plus.

I have the Behmor Plus, but looking to upgrade a roaster that might give me more control when roasting. Switching to manual mode has helped a lot with getting to 1st and 2nd crack as I prefer a darker roast most of the time.

I was reading up on what the plus can do. I like the extra control it gives, but not sure it’s worth the extra $$$ for me to upgrade.
