I’ve just bought a V6 and the pressure is 144mg is that too low? And need increasing?

Seems like a good video but had to cut at 38s bc of the audio issues. Hope you can release own without the music, thanks

I measured my Rancilie V5 with this method and had 130ml in 30s, so the higher models had the pressure set correctly? What RS model do you have?

didnt work for me

Hi Mate, Are you putting 18g into a triple basket?

I hit yellow stage at 350-360 And first crack at 400f Total roast time is usually between 9 and 10 min SR800 with Razzo tube and Roastmaster software reading on my IPAD

Any new videos in the works ?

Sry, i posted the same question on your other video too, but this 12” extension has me wondering if outdoor roasting would allow the elimination of the chaff collector altogether?

With an extension tube this height, anyone just remove the chaff collector when roasting outdoors? Or is a slight restriction from the chaff collector beneficial in someway?

this was very helpful, cant wait to order mine !

such an exciting moment! mine is coming this week.

No roasting software?

Do you still recommend the Silvia even if I don’t upgrade to the pid for a while?

How much time for 6 bar?

How can u get a nitro cylinder for $28. They are $280 here. $nz. Did u goto a welders

My new sr800 will be here this coming Friday 5.17.2024 with extension tube. I constructed my own drum roaster and I have used twice so far and it does a really good job. From all of my research, even with large commercial roasters, air roasting is much better than drum roasting. Most commercial roasters are drum but I think that is going to change in the future and most will be done by air. Much cleaner and not as hard to copy profile and you can see the beans much better.

I have a problem with my Baratza Encore. I bought the machine second-hand and everything looked fine at first. Then I noticed that the grinder was hardly grinding any beans at the lower speed range and was therefore no longer producing ground coffee. I had already ordered the paddle wheel and the felt from you and then the drive shaft and the grindstone directly from Baratza. I then replaced everything according to the instructions. I also recalibrated the grinder according to Baratza's instructions. At level 10, virtually no more flour comes out. You can also hear from the grinding noise that the beans are not being ground and are skipping the grinder. The hopper remains full. I have no idea where the fault could lie.

Sunbear cafe!! Let’s gooooo

Great video. My 17 year old V2 has been over pressured from the beginning! One caution for others is to make sure the tube doesn’t kink as you adjust. I pulled the tube from around the boiler and hung it from the front. Thanks again.

I am waiting on the sr800 when it comes back in stock. I enjoy someone like you showing a roasting without a damn computer telling you what every move to make. I know some people love the idea of Artisan to do their work. That to me is not learning how to get the job done the right way. Thanks again for the lessons without a damn computer. I watch another channel I won't say who but he uses a lot of machines handed to him for evaluation. But every time you see his videos, here goes the damn Artisan program. He gets so long winded with this crap. The guy is good at roasting but man. I put a comment in his post tonight and ask him if he good do some roasting manually and not with a laptop. He was roasting on the Bullet and we know how much that thing cost. The way I see it, if I am going to spend over $3000 on a roaster for the house, it better be able to get the job done without Artisan . Jerry Irmo SC USA [email protected]

@sunbearspecialtycoffeeroasters does that temp gauge have a USB port?

This seems counter-intuitive to me. If you're getting 109 ml in 30 secs. wouldn't you want MORE pressure to get it to 130ml in 30 secs?

KING, thanks for showing how to adjust OPV. Much appreciated

How much

What temperatures did you find to work well for light - dark roast on silvia pro x? Which value do you set your PID at?

Did you change your shower screen with flat screw? Mine is stock and I cannot lock the portafilter in place when using the normcore puck screen

Hi there... I watch all of your videos. You're just about the only one doing roasts with the SR800 and the Razzo tubes. I'm testing out a roast I did about 5 or 6 days ago using my 800 and V5T tube. I took it to a city+ at about 430° via the B/T probe on the Razzo. The flavor just isn't what I though it should be for that level roast. SO... I was wondering! If I'm using the B/T to judge roast level, then how accurate is the B/T with the Razzo tube? I don't know if anyone has ever tried to see. I wish I had some "crap" beans to get a roast up to maybe 425° and then just shut down the SR800 to see the temp of the bean mass without the air affecting it. That would give me an idea of how much lower the B/T is for deciding when to drop. Have you ever thought of this?

Thanks for your great review & promoting my friend, Kent!

I'm using SR800 with a PerfectPrime TC2100 (Mastech 6514 clone) and have started using Artisan. I LOVE my Razzo V5T 12" and decided to get it after watching your videos. I would love to see Kent put another "k" type probe under the base for an E/T output.

This thing broke within a month without doing anything weird to it. The fact I have to perform this level of surgery on it that soon…for the price paid…frankly, pisses me off. Hard not to think this thing is just a piece of sh_t.

great video. just wanted to know any difference on Drum material is it 304 food grade stainless steel or cast iron on this machine ?

LP is propane. Same thing

great vid, horrendous design.

Great video and dare I say even better T-shirt! Love the Mats!!!

Nice and practical video! Thanks for making it! I did a test on my Rancilio Silvia and it seems like previous owner did OPV adjustment, coz it gives 120ml per 30 seconds. Actually I have no problems brewing my esspresso, but when I starts a pump, it is accompanied by sufficiently strong vibrations, so that the glass can "run away". Visually, the pump is in good condition, the rubber mounts look aged, but not torn. Has anyone experienced a similar problem?

Finally decided I had the time to do this. Got all my ducks in a row and pulled 128 in 30. Thank's for saving me from wasting money on a guage.

also how many batches can you cover with one propane tank like you have?

Hello! I have a question. For how long you preheat the roaster before you start actually roasting?

Hey there, have you needed to ever contact Yoshan for any technical or warranty support? just wondering about the product support.

Thanks for your video. Do you have steps how to descale this machine?

Hi there, I have a Yoshan WEC-500 roaster and am looking to upgrade to a larger roaster. have you had any issues with your roaster? or have you ever needed to contact Yoshan for support? I am just wondering how the support is for a company in China. I am in the US like you. Thanks, -SR

The nuts are 20mm. Thanks so much for this video! My problem actually wound up being a clogged solenoid but it's good to know how to adjust the pressure.

This “repair”video is a hot mess of missing steps, useless intros, etc. Very frustrating.

Adding that if you turn the nut with the attached hose; make sure your hose doesn't become twisted. Older hoses will be less flexible/brittle and may fracture.

Thanks for the video. I'm a little confused. Initially less water came out and then after you lowered the pressure more water came out. Shouldn't it have been the reverse that you were trying to achieve?

Hi nice video, can the shot turns it self ohf after x amount of time, this so you don't need to manually stop it?

why's the water not coming out of the grouphead?

Adjustment bolts just wouldn’t move!!

I got 142 ml in 30sec 🤔

Hello my friend😊 Do you recomnad Yoshan 2 kg for a raw beginner? Thank you for all your work😉😊
