This roaster is built one-by-one by a talented gentleman named Kuanho Li, and so some degree of customization is allowed. However we recommend getting the complete package, as listed here. However if you have any questions please pick up the phone and call us - or come by our Brooklyn showroom where we have a demo unit on display and open to trial.

*Upon request the Huky's perforated drum can be replaced with a solid drum at the same cost. While you trade-off speedy temperature control, and require longer pre-heating, the solid drum has the extra benefit of going from 48 up to 72 rpms.
**The Base 301 Thermocoupler is more expensive than the 300 model, but has two inputs, allowing us to measure both bean and environmental temperature at the same time. It's worth it.
***We recommend a second cooling system; the cooling fan assembly is great at collecting chaff, and allows us another way of controlling air-flow during roast, but we've found that it's best to have a second cooling system on-hand so that you aren't forced to clear the chaff from the cooling tray at such a critical time in the roast
****Price includes customs and import into the US.
