„I have a Fresh roast plus 8 .If you have a decent exhaust fan in your kitchen you may get away with the FR+8. It does produce some smoke but you may also want to open a window if nearby.“

„Roasting also develops caramelized or "brown" flavors. The longer you roast, the more acids you break down and the more caramelization you add. The personal touch of the roaster will be balancing acids with caramelization.“

CoffeeKid - A Home Roasting Primer
„Hearthware, happy with the small success their Gourmet model was having, developed their first 3rd generation machine - the Hearthware Precision. The brains of that roaster featured a built in roast profile following the SCAA's recommended roast cycle, and it actively controlled the air volume and heat temperatures. No more "dumb" roasters - they were getting brains now!“

Coffee Roasts: Notes from a Non-Roaster (INeedCoffee.com)
„The Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA), in an effort to add some uniformity to the industry, has put out a roast color chart. But that doesn't affect the brand new roaster who knows what they used to drink in a little Café in France and starts roasting a medium dark French Roast, nor does it affect the old time family-owned roaster who never even heard of the SCAA. If they have a coffee that has been their Italian Roast for 50 years, then it doesn't matter if the proper name of said roast on the SCAA chart is French or Viennese or Full City or whatever, it's still Italian Roast to them. So the confusion isn't likely to dissipate soon.“

Roasting Less Than 8 oz. In the Alpenrost: Home Coffee Roasting: Sweet
„Experienced roaster/operators can use the Alpenrost to test smaller samples of green beans by doing a "manual roast." This technique will allow the roaster to roast in smaller quantities (IE: 125gr. /4oz.) rather than the “recommended 225gr. /8oz.“
