Hey guys where do I get a thermocouple to check temperatures? As for the cooling of the beans do I just take them out of the Corretto or do I need some kind of cooling mechanism etc. and how important it this??
Cheers ;D
Another option is a standard box fan, layed on its back and blowing upwards, with the beans on a sieve or some mesh above the fan. I adopted this idea from someone elses cooler on this site ... search and you will find.
Heres my cooler - the beans are on a round splatter screen from the kitchen dept of many shops, with stiff perspex around it to direct the air and contain the beans. Beans cool to about flesh temperature in around a minute, and it also blows away some of the leftover chaff.
Hey Oily, great idea. Please expand on the construction a bit. How did you make the perspex surround? Is is just a sheet you bent into a ring? How is the splatter screen supported?
