This is a note to let you know I have been having great success with my drum.  Thanks for the effort you put into its design and construction.

Nice unit.   This is built stirdy and should last forever.    Unfortunatly I dropped motor unit while installing and crushed the plastic fan.    I will epoxy it together and see if it runs  without shaking.    You did a wonderful job on the parts no sharp edges and even the drilled holes have no burs.    You must have been a machinist or an engineer or just one talented guy.   I am not used to seeing quality with everything made in china now a days. 

 Thanks,    Brad

 Hi Ron,
I've been meaning to write but I've been too busy roasting! The drum is
working great and you were right, once it gets seasoned and "settled in"
it just keeps getting better. I've also become more adept at controlling
the heat and of course the movements of getting the drum in and out
quickly become more second nature as you go along. I've been turning out
some excellent roasts and have been able to hit the roasts just where I
want them whether it's for a dark roast or a beautiful City+ or Full
City on an island coffee.
Taking the ceramic briquettes out made all the difference in the world
as far as being able to reach roast temps faster, bring my roast times
down to where they should be and to better control temps during the
roast. It's funny since I had thought it would be easier to do all that
/with/ the briquettes. I haven't gotten the steel plate made yet and am
still using the cookie sheet. It's working fine so I may just leave it.


Anyway, I'm thrilled to death with your drum and am wondering why I
didn't do this sooner! Regards Brian

Hi Ron, 

Bo out in Montana.... 

Well, 700+ lbs of coffee roasted in the last year and a half since purchasing my Drum....and still banging out some of the best coffee to be found anywhere.  

(if I don;t say so myself) My friends, family, and even a couple dozen "Customers"?....people who have adopted me as their coffee supplier will attest- good beans, fire steel (the RK ) and man it makes some good coffee, 

thanks much again, 

Bo Maiuri
