It's About The Coffee

Just unpacked my new roaster  (on right) this baby will do a 1/2 pound of green beans at a time and dumps them into an agitated cooling tray when the roast is completed.

Some of us like ordinary in-can results, others are willing to include raw processing in their workflow.  Undoubtedly the program code is written in Java.

Hi Andrew,  I've had the Gaggia for about a year or so and really like it.

Where do you get the uncooked beans? Is there much variety in bean types available?

Had mine at least two years, so far so good. Had to modify the plastic goodie inside the bean storage area because it wouldn’t always flow down with oily beans without a push. Resetting the circuit (after descale) is far from intuitive. But it makes a tasty brew...

 Hi Justan, there are lots of types available online, it's almost like you're buying wine    Some are pretty pricey!!

  Try The Coffee Bean Corral or Sweetmaria's.

  I've been using the LaVazza beans in mine and have had the same issue, how long did you run yours before it needed the descale?

It pops a Descale error on its own, I think its probably every 6 months or so.
