Good afternoon everyone. I'm just in the initial stages of planning and deciding whether or not this is an industry I want to step into. I am very interested right now in learning what I can about roasting equipment. I know there are an endless amount of variables involved but I am looking for information on specific types of roasting.
I've seen roasters that have
1. - flame contact on the drum with combustion gases in with the beans,
2. - no flame contact with beans being roasted (or I would think toasted) with only hot air
3. - a combination of the above
4. - finally roasters which have air being recirculated through an afterburner and the
chaff and smoke are being burnt and passed through the bean.
I would appreciate any insight or advice as to the results of these types of roasters.
Thank you
