Hi Dave,

I havent roasted with one but understand that they are very good.

To me, they look a little like the spud ovens at a farmers market, but thats just me ;D.

I believe that they are top dollar....

Hi Dave,

I have roasted on 15-16kg version, and yes they roast well. Once heated up they are almost accurate to the second. Great coffee comes out of these machines.

The price is massive.

Think of a Probat, then imagine something better.

There are many similarities between Probats and Geisen (some shared IP arrangments).

The Geisen family built Probats (sub 50kg units) for many years until Probat outsourced to China (which is an different, but interesting story).

Very happy with my Geisen.
