New Roaster Question...

[infernalallison]

Thank you to everyone who responded so willingly to my first post! You were all more help than you know.

Now I have another question for all of you pro's out there. Are there any companies out there that allow you to rent roasting equipment, rather than purchasing? I have searched some online, but haven't found anything.

I know that you can rent new or used espresso machines etc. for a designated fee per month, which, since the machine is owned by the rental company, would include free repairs and so on. Does this sort of thing exist for roasters, such as the Ambex YM-2 or something along those lines?

Thanks in advance for any information that is provided...feel free to PM me!

It looks like they have (1) sample, (2) 7k and (1) 22k roasters for lease. Plus some weigh and pack stuff.
