I have done three roasts with my BM/Heat gun and I dont seem to be getting accurate readings of the tempurature on my DMM. In the three roasts done I have reached FC at 184/162/150 degrees. The first one may have been second crack because I unloaded the beans shortly after as they were starting to get very dark. Either way it still seams very low for FC.
My questions are: Which type of thermocouple is better, the probe or the flexible one with a bead on the end? I have the second one. Best place to put it in an unmodified BM (still used for bread)? I currently have it attached to a metal pin and position it in the opposite corner of the pan as to where the heat gun is aimed and at the bottom of the pan. I only roasted 250g in each of the roasts if that makes a difference. Thanks!
