    Thanks Mono for filling in while I was absent.

    Here's a pic as requested.

    The blades are easy to bend with a pair of pliers. 45 degree angle is the recommendation in order to draw the heat from the halogen elements into the chamber to improve the convection cycle.

    Certainly look at how the blades are rotating. You get a better idea of rotation once you turn it off and see the fan slow down.
    Again, angle the blades in order for the heat to draw down to the beans.

    As illustrated, the heat shield has been removed.

    Keep in mind any warranty for the oven will be void with any modifications.

    The modifications may have an effect on the silicon ring sitting on the lip of the pot, so keep an eye on any bubbling occuring.
    You may have to reduce the heat setting when roasting if you notice any problems.

    Keep us posted.

      I did a roast last night with the holes in the heat shield, but with out changing the angle of the fan blades. It knocked 3-4 min's off my 600g roast, and the roast was a lot more even. I noticed that the TO cycled a lot less as well. I may leave it at that and not bend the fan blades until I am ready for much larger roasts...
