Beginner Coffee Roaster Recommendations for Long-Term Use
I’m new to coffee roasting and I’d appreciate any advice or recommendations on choosing a home coffee roaster that suits my needs.
- I’ll be roasting on my balcony, so ventilation isn’t a concern.
- Batch Size is around 200g
- Budget is around 2k$, +-, but I don’t want to start with an entry-level model. I’d prefer to invest in something more advanced that I can grow into and use for several years.
- I love experimenting with flavors and profiles, but I also value consistency and quality in the final result.
- I'm in Australia where we have amazing coffee, so I want results that can match the pros
What would you recommend?
- iTOP v2 - I see it's very hyped on forums, due to the price. But I'm concerned with the quality.
- Kaleido M1
- Hottop P
- Anything else you’d recommend? Even if it's above the budget
