How much time elapses between roasting and selling?

you order, they roast the next day, then ship. 2 days later... your house smells of fresh coffee

You have to weigh the beans, then push the appropriate button to match that weight. Then figure out what program and profile you want. It takes a few roasts to figure out exactly what you need, but may change depending on the type of bean. And then you want to stay near, set your timer and listen for cracks...knowing you might want to stop a bit short of your desired roast as it will keep cooking a bit during cool down. Then when cooled, use a hand vac to vacuum up the chaff. I do 5 roasts and then do a cleaning cycle as recommended....just push the 1/4 lb button, then the start button. After the cleaning cycle I use a generic Magic Eraser sponge to wipe the surface of the inside of the machine to get the remaining oils off. The manual and website may suggest something else, but this works for me. That's it! Oh yeah, and once every six months, take out the screws off the plate and clean the fan underneath. It's just a computer case fan, so pretty easy to do with canned air.

Probably about 4-6 hours. Also, I use a shameful amount of creamer so that certainly impacts how hot the coffee is after I prepare it. I really am very happy with the performance of the carafe.

My guess: 3 to 3 1/2 minutes. I just timed grinding about 30 grams: two minutes.

I would have to say about 1-2 minutes with the adjustment setting at max. The instructions suggest heating up at max, then dialing down as needed. Great soldering iron set

If starting from frozen it will take longer to reach pressure but the same amount of time to cook. If preparing a meat and it has been browned in the pc pot, pressure will be reached in a few minutes. If making a frozen roast without browning it can take up to 15 minutes. Soups and vegetables takes minutes. It depends more on the temperature of what you're beginning with than it does the amount of food.

The high setting will max out just above 190F. I found this very disappointing for things that you want to simmer, iIt will take about 8 hours to cook a decent sized roast.

It depends on how fine you are grinding. The smaller grinds take a little longer. But either way a minute or two.

depends on how much is on it, anywhere from 30 seconds to 10 minutes. You can't finalize it later.

My experience was that the cooking times in the book are accurate and cooking it in this roaster does make the breast meat nice and moist. If your family only likes breast meat you can actually fit two in the roaster at once. It will take a little longer to roast than one, but not double. Maybe 2-3 minutes more per TOTAL pound. I love the browning recipe that was in the booklet and use it for a nice golden color, but I also like to put herb butter between the skin and meat before roasting. Just lift the skin, leaving the major attachment at the breast bone and around the edges in place and use a paper towel to get this "pocket" as dry as possible. It helps the butter stick instead of sliding around. Per 1/4 lb of butter (which should do 2 breasts) add in 1 tsp of whatever dried herbs you prefer or 1 Tbs of finely minced fresh herbs. Hope this helps.

This is a roaster great for meats-ribs, hams, small birds, etc., but it cooks way too fast to not be attended. Like a larger roaster (I have a 25 pounder for turkeys) this will take your cooking time down significantly. Instead of a 4-5 hour cook time your probably looking at 2 1/2 to 3 max. the temp on this even on low is hot. great for smaller amounts of roasting. I do cook beans, roast, etc. but once again--it cooks hot and fast. I personally love mine. its held up well.

I've only used the item for baked beans & pulled pork. Haven't tried a roast yet.

Short answer...och! touched it. That might not be the answer you would like to hear but you know it's working. I have several different brands of Roasters and cookers. This one is the only one without a idiot light on it. It also bothered me at first but heck, most things I put in it takes a few hours or longer to cook and you are just looking at the light. If it was my fish or pancake fryer the light is handy so I know it's up to temp but a roster, it's all slow cooking. If you are using the roaster as a steamer with a water bath in the bottom it takes me little over 20 mins to heat the water up to temp.

It depends on what type of roast you are using and the fineness of the grind. Generally it takes about 2 minutes for this to drain with a medium coarse grind so it works best for light roast coffees. You can also use it with dark roasts but those usually taste better with a longer steep around the 4 minute mark. When I make light roast coffee I use this and when I make med or dark roast I use a french press. I use this item at work every day and I love it. It's easy to clean too. But if you want something really quick a Keurig type machine is your best bet or an espresso machine.

It comes with directions as to how many to roast at one time, how and what temp.

About 4-8 minutes for 4-5 oz, depending on the depth of the roast and the bean being roasted. So much depends on the bean and quantity that you can't get much more precise on timing. And the bigger the batch, the longer it takes. But you're dealing with just a few minutes.

I've also moved on to a purpose-built roaster (Behmor), but I put somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 pounds through the Toastess and the last batch was just fine. It's sitting in the cabinet as a ready backup. From comments on the roaster forums (e.g., coffeegeek, Sweet Marias), one gets the impression that you should expect a popper to last in excess of a year with steady use (2-3 roasts a week), but folks also claim well beyond that. They certainly aren't built for the longer runs and heavier payloads that coffee roasting requires, so there's that. But like I said, mine did 20 lb and it looks and runs fine. Sturdy little contraption. I've also moved on to a purpose-built roaster (Behmor), but I put somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 pounds through the Toastess and the last batch was just fine.
