Cooling beans

Do you think it’s more effective to run the cooling phase for 30-45 seconds and then cool beans externally (cookie sheet, coffee bean cooler, etc) or to run the cooling phase for 3-6 minutes with heat/power on 1 and fan on 9? I have yet to get my roaster (coming in the next few days). Also, how necessary is the extension tube? Am I bound to ruin my coffee if I don’t start out roasting with the extension tube? Thanks for your feedback. I’m sure I’ll be back with 57 more questions… lol

RoR spikes

I'm using the Sr800 with the Oem extension tube. I've been struggling with the spike during the mailard phase when my RoR seems to be dropping too rapidly and I adjusted the fan. Any recommendations on what I should do differently?

SR900 Roast Tech Manual Roast Issue

I'm using Roast Tech on MacOS with my SR900 and I'm running into an annoying issue. Every time I run a manual roast, even when I set roast time to 15 minutes, it automatically goes into cooling mode 1 minute into the roast. I can run profile roasts fine and even switch into manual mode after running in profile mode for a few minutes but every time I start in manual mode it starts cooling after a minute. Had anyone ran into similar issues or have any ideas?

Brewer collection

It would take to long naming each one but these are the ones I have in my collection. The most used brewers are the 01 v60 clear and my Clever Dripper I use daily for large batch brews with 60/1020 used as a pour over. But I do get the others in the rotation each week. There are also 8 glass carafe's used with my pour over brewers that I used mostly when I'm brewing 25 grams or more, otherwise they just go into my mug or glass I'm drinking the coffee in with 12-20 grams batches.

And there are no other brewers that I want to add so I'm going to stop buying brewers. Well I have been eyeballing the Prestina Brewer. :)

If your heater not working anymore, it's most likely the thermo fuse. SR800

Found no information whatsoever about it online. Opened it up and fixed it myself. This is the original one. For replacement you need 250V 10 amps 216C-240C range thermo fuse found on Amazon for few bucks. Just cut out old one and add new one
