Soweit ich bei
www.toomuchcoffee.com gelesen habe gibt es wohl die Möglichkeit die Röstzeiten deutlich zu verlängern indem man den Widerstand in der Basis des Gerätes durch einen höheren ersetzt.
Eingebaut soll sein 1 kOhm - sinnvoller Tausch soll sein ca. 2.2 kOhm.
Auch soll der Widerstand leicht zu tauschen sein, da wohl bei der Konstruktion des Gerätes bereits wert darauf gelegt wurde, daß dem so ist.
[Habe nicht den passenden Schraubendreher für die (Sicherheits- ?) Schrauben unten am Gerät um selbst nachsehen zu können]
Hat das bereits jemand versucht ?
Die Auswirkungen werden dort wie folgt beschrieben:
" Before = French roast using preset 1 (supposed to produce a light roast) (Simon - if you are thinking the one you saw wasn't a French, you are, of course, right, but it would've been if I'd let it finish)
After = City (ish) roast using preset 1
Before = Charcoal using preset 2
After = haven't tried it, but sure it will be okay "
EDIT: Ebenfalls von toomuchcoffee:
Another update, I contacted Hearthware cutomer services and explained the problem, this is the reply:-
Dear Alan,
Looks like you have a European model of the I-Roast. Usually this happens when you have a higher voltage input and high power, it roasts faster.
One way is to roast outside, where is cooler, it will reduce the speed.
Another way will be changing the temperature setting: if you open up the bottom cover of the power base (3 screws), and you can see an opening with part of the PCB board exposed, there is temperature setting jumper (a resistor with white plastic plug, ~10 mm size) inserted on the board, You can pull it straight upwards, and the jumper will be removed from the socket. The resistor value should be between 1.0K-ohm to 5.0 K ohm, the higher the resistance, the lower the temperature setting.
So if the roster is roasting too fast, replace the resistor with a higher value one, such as 4.5 K-ohm, it will slow down the process. and vise versa.
Thanks!
