All, I have an apology to make :oops: :oops: :oops: After noticing the discrepancy between Steve's and my reading, I thought it would be good to confirm the thermocouple is in good condition. I also noticed there's some waviness in the logged measurements, so I went to Jaycar and got a new bare K t...

Had some fun playing with Nano 7's manual control mode today. :D With the Nano 7 in manual control mode, I poked around in the roast chamber with my temperature probe to find the hottest spot for MET measurement (hot hot hot!). Turned out my suspicion was right, the darkest vent (stained by the roas...

Wow, thanks for sharing Steve! You're quick to pedal into action, and so quickly! That's a nice set of data and lots of food for thoughts (still to digest fully). Interesting that you commented about the heat too fast error. I did get them occasionally but only if I am doing back to back roast with ...

Hey Angela, Thanks for sharing your observation! I agree, the roast comes out of the Nano 7 have always looked pretty even, perhaps even a touch more even than what I get out of the Quest M3. That's the advantage of fluid bed roaster I suppose. But we're chasing after marginal improvement here (so I...

Updated to 3.2.1 here too. All seems to work fine!

Pardon my basic question... What is a profile schema and what is it for? Is that just a feature that allows the short name to be left blank?

Update 27 Oct 2019 : Apologies all. It looks like the original thermocouple sensor that I used was on its way out, hence leading to incorrect temperature reading and observation.... Hi all, Sorry for the lack of update...life's got in the way. :lol: Just want to share a finding and possibly get some...

Out of interest how did you like the hoffs / SM roasts? I thought the development on C, D, E was excellent for light roast. Quite enjoyed B for something slightly more laid back, lower acidity and really pleasant sweetness / mouthfeel. A, was kind of weird / confusing, a bit tea like. I would like ...

This turned out to be quite exciting, to be able to download others profiles and load them onto my roaster. So I did 3 roasts on this past Saturday (3x 100g Ethiopian Koechere Boji natural), using Ben's 004 (2.4) and 007 (2.4) profile, and Steve's Ninja9 (2.7) at the recommended roast level (in brac...

Your log 20 shows a distinctive waviness that points to an incorrectly tuned PID controller. I am aware from other correspondence we have had that you are roasting 60g batches. What this tells me is that the PID values need some retuning for these small batches. The settings that need changed are t...

Hi Ben, Thanks for sharing your results. :D I normally aim for lighter roasts as well and am generally a fan for fruity natural Ethiopian. Still a novice roaster with the Kaffelogic (but roasted on a Quest M3 for years). I created a roast profile based on the BT/ET curve I'm more familiar with (my f...
