Another major feature of this machine is that it has an exhaust. You can see this at the top of the black box-like structure on the left. That structure collects huge amounts of chaff, another excellent feature. I attached a pipe reducer to the exhaust which expanded the bore from 80mm (the size of the exhaust) to 100mm, and then attached a 100m expandable metal ducting tube which carries all the nasty steam, oils and aromas out of the kitchen. By the way, if you think roasting coffee smells of coffee, you're mistaken. It smells of cooking hay, or possibly peanuts. | Another major feature of this machine is that it has an exhaust.
