Thisfixed-price saleis for the new, replacement model for our favorite little workhorse, the FreshRoast 8, the most popular home coffee roaster with over 60,000 units sold worldwide. It is sturdier and has twice the capacity of its predecessor. This roaster will generate abut 4oz of roasted coffee, which using our recommended coffee to water ratio comes out to 72oz of coffee (or 12 6-oz cups). We willship it for free anywhere in the continental US. We ship worldwide. Please call or email us for shipping costsoutside the 48 continental states.
With the SR300 you can only vary the length of the roast time. It defaults at 5.9 minutes. We find that period too short and we recommend that you use about 7 minutes to get a medium roast. On the more advanced SR500 model you can also change the temperature of the roast and the fan speed. In summary, the SR300 is a nice, introductory, inexpensive home coffee roaster for those that just want to test the waters of home coffee roasting.
Free Coffee Samples: We will include at no extra cost two samples (half pound each, one pound total) of very-high-qualityPremium and Specialty green coffee beans to get you started on roasting, as soon as you open the box! These beans are 100% Arabica coffee beans, not some cheap commercial grade. You will receive samples of our Invalsa Extra (A) and Invalsa Superior (AA) coffee beans. If you prefer (custom regulations, lower shipment costs, etc), we can also ship the roaster without any coffee beans. Just let us know.

PRODUCT REVIEW: In our opinion, The FreshRoast SR300 is the best-value, easiest-to-use home coffee roaster available in the market today. You can roast for any kind of coffee maker, including espresso. Before selling them, we tested them extensively and are ready to endorse them. Using our own select green coffee beans we got nice uniform roasts. We heard of a reviewer suggesting that the beans be agitated manually (with a spoon) to avoid scorched beans. We certainly didn\'t have to do that. We also tried smaller batches (less than two scoops), but found the best results with 120 grams of green coffee (abouttwo scoops), as recommended by the manufacturer.
With twice the capacity of its predecessor, you may only have to roast every other day. If you do not want to roast every day, we recommend that you consider our larger models, the Behmor 1600, the Gene Cafe, and the Hottop. However, they are much more expensive. The unit measures 13\" by 6.5\" by 8\" and weighs about 4.5 lbs. Shipping weight (including free coffee) is about 7 lbs.
We areone of the largestauthorized distributors, located on the East Coast (Boston).We service and support what we sell, and westock for immediate shipment all necessary parts, including the replacement glass roasting chamber. Here is the link to all the FreshRoast parts we stock and have available for immediate shipment: align=\"left\">Roasting Tips: One roast will make 8 to 12 6-oz cups, depending on the coffee strength desired. To use it, lift the chaff collector, add 4.6oz (that istwo measures of the included scoop) of green coffee beans, replace the collector, press the on switch and you are done! Ten minutes later you have fresh roasted coffee! It is very important to empty the chaff basket after every use. We recommend using a natural-bristle paint brush to break the static, which causes the chaff to stick to the collector, and thus remove the chaff with more ease. Do not unplug the roaster until the fan stops by itself and the beans are cool to the touch. You can enjoy your coffee then by grinding and brewing it, but it is better if you let the roasted coffee\"rest\" by 6 to 24 hours, so that all the CO2 gases escape and the full flavor develops. Note: If the roaster remains plugged into the outlet for a long period of time or is not switched to the OFF position after the COOL mode has finished, the roaster will go to \"Sleep Mode\", and thus will no longer operate. If this happens, switch to the OFF position, unplug and wait 10 minutes. This step will reset the roaster and will make it ready to roast again.

A quick primer on fresh-roasted coffee: Most people are amazed to learn that once a coffee bean has been roasted, it starts to lose flavor, slowly at first,but surelyin justthree days, even if it has not been ground. Over the next three weeks, even more flavor is lost, beyond repair. Most of us don\'t often have a chance to taste the full flavor of coffee, unless we know a local coffee roaster. Until 50 years ago, this is how coffee was sold, just like milk. Your local coffee roaster delivered freshly roasted beans to your home at regular intervals based on your family\'s consumption. After WWII, when \"development\" took place, national coffee roasters started offering \"convenient\" and \"scientifically\" packaged coffee and convinced us that \"modern\" coffee was \"just as good\" and without all the fuss and mess. Well, guess what, commercial coffeetasted awful, and we just drank it because we wanted the caffeine.The only thing we cared about was the price. No wonder young kids started drinking colas. It also has caffeine, but at least it tastes good and sweet!
Let\'s go back! With a modern home coffee roaster, like this one, there is no mystery to in-home coffee roasting. In just 7 to 8 minutes, you will be ready to brew a pot of the freshest coffee that you have ever made. Furthermore, once you have started roasting your own coffee, you will be able to savor the truly finest coffees in the world freshly roasted in your own home!
So, go ahead, recover one of the timeless, lost pleasures and start roasting your own coffee today.
