    Again, wow, I'm amazed at how fast the replies come in and how helpful everyone is! Thank you! Ok, some really, really, useful tips and pointers there! I'll check out those suppliers and will have a go with something Brazilian first before I attempt the MM
  2. Home Roasters
    Great stuff - thanks for the pic as well. It gives me a really good idea of how to set things up. I'd have it on the counter top which is right below the same sort of window (transom window). Would you recommend the ply then? I hadn't thought about the ducting touching the UPVC frame or blowing...

    Thank you all, again I'm thinking the GC is definitely the way to go then for what I'll be needing: volume/frequency, capacity, smoke ventilation through window, counter-top, cost etc.

    I'd be roasting in my kitchen as well and plan on using ducting to vent out of the kitchen window. Do you have to place the GC on something to avoid burning the worktop? I'm based in West Kirby so not far from you at all! Small world!

    Another quick question: how many roasts per week would you think would be a sensible amount at 200g per roast, in the GC, without burning it out?

    These replies are fantastic; thank you everyone for the information - it's extremely helpful! In terms of the GC, are the roasts repeatable? I'm leaning to that at the moment. I got in touch with Shelly - she quoted £850 for the HT B model. I'm not opposed to spending that much but only if it's...
  9. Home Roasters
    Thanks for the fast replies and advice/info, much appreciated! Cost is a concern but it's outweighed by the view I have that you get what you pay for and that I'm after a "buy once" investment, too. One concern I do have over the Hottop B is sourcing replacement filters: I've heard that can be...
  10. Home Roasters
    Hi all I'm new on the forums and new to home roasting. I've been reading around and narrowed a choice down to the Hottop B or Gene Cafe CBR-101. I'm reading some fairly bad reviews about the Gene Cafe being unreliable, hard to hear the crack, melting/going on fire, and so on. But it is...
