Heat circulates continuously through and around the beans. There is no direct contact between the beans and the heating element, which supports consistent colour development across the batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTemperature and time are set via two dial controls. The red dial sets target temperature and doubles as the start\/stop control; the blue dial sets the timer and controls power on\/off. A dual digital display shows current temperature and elapsed time simultaneously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glass roasting chamber provides unobstructed visibility throughout the cycle. Once the roast completes, forced cooling runs automatically for approximately 8 minutes – or can be activated manually at any point during the roast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGreen Coffee Starter Kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe've curated five of our green coffees (250 g each) in this starter kit, with a combined value of $50.
