A few pictures of my roasting set-up that includes a Huky with a cyclone, my Torrefattore and space in the middle for the 500 gram North when it arrives.  I like having a permanent space for my roasters so I'm ready to roast at any time.  They are housed in a small roasting shed on my back patio.

Okay, that's freaking cool. Nice setup, Cammie.

Those Cyclones!

Wow Nice setup!

Those cyclones indeed!

Did you build that blue cyclone using the original Huky fan?
Looks like it.

[Curtis Martin]

Very very nice setup! Can we get some closer up pictures of the huky exhaust pipes and connection points?

[Cammie]

Thanks all.  I will take some more detailed pictures and explain how I use cyclones.  I did use original Huky parts (fan, funnel, sieve and stainless steel connectors) to put together the cyclone.  The blue cyclone itself is very nicely built and came from an eBay seller. The combination and placement of parts gives me a decent seal/cyclonic effect so that the bulk of the chaff during a roast is deposited into the collection bucket.  I use a Variac (under the counter) to control air flow. If I'm remembering correctly, I reversed the face plate on the cyclone fan so that it would be secure at the top of the cyclone and have air flow going in the right direction.  I also made sure the seals were not too tight since I still need to be able to lift up the pipe connecting the cyclone to the roaster to drop the beans and help cool off the roaster more quickly.

Very nice..

Figured I'd add my build here, even though I made a more detailed thread.  I used a lot of the ideas found in here to make mine all come together.  Must have referred to this thread a 100 times.
