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. |

Re: The magic smoke came out of the SC/CO
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 |

Re: The magic smoke came out of the SC/CO
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?

Re: The magic smoke came out of the SC/CO
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.

Re: The magic smoke came out of the SC/CO
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. |
