Hi all
So I tried roasting in my breadmaker with my heat gun and am having real difficulty hearing the cracks. All the clunking from the beans hitting the sides seems to drown out the cracks for me. I can just go by colour but I want to dump it all as I hear the start of seconnd crack.
I have just gone back to manual stirring the beans with the air from the heat gun in a large mixing bowl which allows me to hear everything clearly.
I am new to this roasting business and not hearing anything is a pretty big deal breaker it seems. I started with 250g and went up to 300g to see if increasing the volume a little would help to no avail.
Also, any problems with dead spots inside a rectangular BM? Plenty of beans get stuck in the corners though this hasn't made any problems in roasting evenness from what I've attempted.
Cheers
Tim
