Things Coffee | Hottop, Gene Cafe, Coffee Roaster, KN-8828D, KN-8828B, KN-8828P, upgrade kit

Overview

The Hottop KN-8828B is a Hottop coffee roaster with programmability! After setting a target temperature and roast time at which the beans will be automatically ejected, the B controller gives you the flexibility to adjust the heater power and fan speed at any time during the roast to build the profile you want! And if you liked what you did, you can save the program at the end of the roast for next time!

The great thing about the Hottop B over every other Hottop controller is that it provides proportional heater power control. All other controllers simply turn the heater full on or full off, whereas the B allows you to provide constant heating at different power levels for the ultimate control and evenness in roast. It really is the controller for the roasting enthusiast!

Note that this is an official full-specification 230v/50Hz roaster, not the cheaper 110v/60Hz units designed for American power systems. 110v roasters and upgrade kits will not work properly on 230v supplies.

NOTE

These units are from an older series of chassis which employs a smaller chaff tray to some newer Hottop units. They have been fitted with the latest series of Hottop B control circuitry and are brand new units which perform in an identical manner. The only difference is that the chaff tray fills up faster, however as the chaff tray should be emptied after each roast this does not normally pose a problem.
