This machine is by no means a perfect machine. Although it has digital temperature control, it measures the temperature of the exhaust. A good machine will also measure the temperature of the beans. Comparison of these two measurements tells you what is going on inside the roasting chamber much more than eyeballing the colour of the beans, and allows you exquisite control over the roasting process. As it only measures the temperature of the exhaust, you still have to eyeball and use the exhaust temperature as a guide. | This machine is by no means a perfect machine.
