Stuck bean

Hi,
Quietly going about my roasting when I noticed a bean stuck to the end of the probe after my last roast.
It’s really stuck, as in won’t budge at all

Any suggestions here? I’m guessing a rip off is not really the solution

Hi,
I was told to get a pair of long nosed pliers and gently squeeze. It easily shatters. Nerve wracking each time it happens.
I seemed to have one batch of coffee that regularly had a stuck bean, fortunately it's been months since it's happened.
Sometimes you can very gently wiggle it off, but it sounds like you've already tried that.
Cheers, Justine
