Amazon.com: Kitchen & Housewares: FreshRoast Plus 8 Home Coffee Roaster with 1 lb. Ethiopian Washed Sidamo Organic Green Coffee (#)

„This is a simple matter of monitoring the bean color and aroma, then manually turning the machine to cool when the beans are perfect. Typically, in a Freshroast the beans roast a little darker on the outside and the coffees bright notes and aroma are accentuated, while deeper tones can sometimes be muted because of the fast roast time. The roast time will vary between coffee types, but results can be duplicated by recording the roast time for each type of coffee you roast. Includes a pound of our Fair Trade certified organic Ethipian Washed Sidamo green coffee.“

CoffeeGeek - FreshRoast Roaster - James Schulman's Review (#)

„I'm still enthusiastic about the Freshroast Plus, and stand by all the comments I've made. But a little disclosure is in order: I really enjoy home roasting and probably qualify as a "hobbyist" The FR is a simple machine, and can easily be modified with dimmers, variable transformers, roasting chamber extensions, thermometers, etc; so it's ideal for someone like me. It'll also work OK as a set it/forget it roaster, but if that's really your wish -- grab a few Hearthware precisions before they're all gone.“

Amazon.com: Kitchen & Housewares: FreshRoast +8 Home Coffee Roaster with 5 lbs. Green Coffee (#)

„Ideal for a household of 1 to 2 coffee drinkers, it takes just 5-8 minutes to roast the green coffee beans with a 2 minute cool-down cycle. The Freshroast has a mechanical timer and the chaff collector is simple yet effective. Because the roast chamber is smaller and the roast cycle is shorter than other home coffee roasting machines, it uses less energy to roast a batch of beans. Because of its basic design, this is the roaster that will outlast all the fancy, computer chip controlled machines out there.“

„Two thoughts here. If, like me, you end up sharing your coffee with others, you can have a hard time keeping up with the FreshRoast. Secondly, I find the iRoast to be more "interesting" because it allows more experimentation and control. I will say that the FreshRoast is very easy to use and does a fine job.“

CoffeeGeek - FreshRoast Roaster - Josh Gajewski's Review (#)

„I had never roasted green coffee beans before I received the Freshroast as a gift.  It was kind of on a whim that a friend gave it to me and I think they were shocked to find out that I've become addicted to it!  It is so easy to use and the difference between store-bought roasted beans and the ones that I roast at home is incredible.“

Tea & Coffee 05/03 - Getting the Skinny on Sample Roasters: Part I (#)

„Other than a smaller-than-average batch size (57 grams/2 ounces), the Freshroast is the sleeper unit of the bunch. It most closely follows Ian Bersten’s theories that the ideal roast time is between four and six minutes, at least that’s what he states in his legendary and notorious treatise on the subject, Coffee Floats and Tea Sinks.“

CoffeeGeek - FreshRoast Roaster - Michael Rich's Review (#)

„I was nervous about buying a roaster because of mixed reviews I'd heard about the late Hearthware Precision. With the FreshRoast, I think I've gotten something I can live with. A home roaster simply can't roast a pound every morning with something like this and expect it to last long. So with reasonable expectations, I dove in.“

Roasting with a Variac Controlled FreshRoast Plus (INeedCoffee.com) (#)

„I began my adventure with coffee roasting last winter when I received a FreshRoast Plus for Christmas. The FreshRoast is known for being a bit fast but it is an excellent machine to learn with and is relatively quiet. The FR also has the advantage of being modifiable.“

„This green coffee must be roasted before it can be made into a coffee beverage. We recommend roasting with a home coffee roasting appliance such as the FreshRoast Plus, also available from Seven Bridges Cooperative.“

„A company called Hearthware introduced the very popular Hearthware Gourmet. Another company introduced the FreshRoast, a micro roaster that could roast only a few ounces of beans at time.“

„how small of batches? My FreshRoast does 1/2 a pound at a time, good for profiling. What roaster do you have, drum I imagine for "slow" roasting .“

„Bottom Line: The FreshRoast+ is small, but efficient and seems to be heavy-duty enough to stand up to multiple roasts.“
