Bunkmil:
Hi all,

I’m about to finally pull the trigger and order my Huky setup. Here’s my list of items so far. I’ll be roasting in my garage so I want to make sure that I have everything needed to send the smell/smoke outside.

•   HUKY 500T (Solid drum with 72rpm motor)
•   Digital probes (ET, BT and MET)
•   Infrared stove
•   Exhaust bowl
•   Extra sieve/tray
•   Extra thermocouple (MET)
•   Extra fan
•   Extra funnel

I’ll order a Phidget 1048 with the case and I already have a Variac at home to control the fan speed.

Anything else I should add to my list?

Thanks!

Bunkmil:
I see a lot of people also ordering an extra fan and an extra funnel.

May I ask what are the pros of having those extras ? I don't mind adding them to my list but I just don't want to order stuff that I won't be using.

Hi there and welcome.

One tray, fan and funnel are used with the exhaust bowl for air flow and expelling smoke.

The other funnel is used when charging with beans.

A second tray and fan are used when dropping and cooling the roasted beans.

Cheers.  :)

Thanks for the reply!

Then would I also need a second exhaust bowl to vent outside while cooling ? Or can I just swap the bowl once the beans are dropped ?

SusanJoM:
Nope. 
Your cooling doesn't need any venting.  All you need for cooling is a sieve and a fan.
