    The Gene Cafe CBR-101 Coffee Roaster

    The Gene Cafe CBR-101 is renowned as an excellent electric roaster that can accommodate about 250 grams of unroasted coffee. It's perfect for both beginners and experienced home roasters. With convenient time and temperature controls and a full glass roasting chamber, it's easy to embark on your coffee roasting journey immediately. As you gain more experience, you can start to customise your roasts and develop your own roast profiles. The CBR-101 features a unique downward rotating swirl drum that ensures a very even roast.

    Burner Specifications:

    • Capacity: 50 - 250 grams
    • Weight: 5.5 kg
    • Voltage: 220 - 240V
    • Dimensions (WxHxL): 49cm x 24.3cm x 22.9cm
    • Max. wattage: 1300 watts

    Usage Tips:

    • You might find yourself roasting the beans too dark initially. Try to avoid this as the finest flavours in coffee are often lost in a darker roast. Additionally, dark-roasted coffee beans can be detrimental to fully automatic coffee machines.
    • Always remain near the roaster during use for fire safety and to listen for the 1st and/or 2nd crack during roasting.
    • Due to moisture loss during roasting, you'll end up with about 20% less by weight of roasted coffee beans compared to the weight of the unroasted beans.
    • Use the roaster under an extractor hood or near an open window to minimise smoke.
    • For best results, use 250 grams of unroasted coffee beans per batch. If you use less, the roasting time will be shorter; if you use more, the roasting time will be longer. Consider this when trying to replicate a roast profile.
    • Begin with a temperature setting of about 235 degrees and adjust from there for future roasts. More experienced users might start with the highest temperature and lower it after the first crack of the beans.
    • Quickly cool the beans post-roast by, for example, shaking them in a sieve.
    • Clean the roaster by removing membranes after each roast. Every 20 roasts, remove the fleece trap and clean it with warm water, ensuring it dries thoroughly afterward. Any residual grease doesn't affect roast quality but in severe cases, clean to prevent fire hazards.
    • Wait at least 4 to 24 hours before brewing coffee from freshly roasted beans. Coffee typically tastes best between days 3 and 5 after roasting.
    • Explore our wide selection of unroasted coffee beans for experimentation.

    Gene Café CBC101 Coffee Bean Cooler

    Freshly roasted coffee beans need cooling below 30 degrees within minutes to prevent further baking and quality decline. With Gene Café's CBR101 coffee cooler, this task is hassle-free. After roasting, transfer the hot coffee beans to the cooler. In under a minute per 400 grams of coffee beans (maximum capacity of 500 grams), your coffee reaches the perfect temperature. It's ideal for use with the Gene Café CBR101 coffee roaster, which does not include a cooling function.

    • 42W / 220V~240V, 60HZ
    • European / Dutch plug
    • Net weight: 2 kg
    • Cooling time based on bean type and temperature: approximately 1 minute for 250 to 400 grams of beans.
    • Width: 21.7cm
