I bought the complete package back in ...Hey Peter,<br /><br />I bought the complete package back in 2011 for a total of 2.800 DKK ($480), the big chaff collector that I use is alone worth 600 DKK ($110). But I think the normal price for the Gene Cafe with its original chaff collector is about 3.000 DKK ($520). <br /><br />There is one roaster with a lot more advanced features and is considered being the top off the line in the category of home roasting. Its called the Hottop and its about the double in price, but this roaster is actually a mini copy of the professional roasters. The Hottop comes in different models, where some are more adjustable, but check it out at this link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWgSnRKJzIE&feature=plcp&context=C3365e92UDOEgsToPDskLYGeDSfDnjzADb46Ti981z). <br />Want I know of is that this roaster is producing more smoke and reducing less chaff, which I value a lot.<br /><br />With the big chaff collector I don't have any problem with the smoke, because I just place it under the hood and turn up the air stream. So after I'm done roasting there is no smoke or smell left in the apartment, so compared to the oven roast its a lot less smoke and smell producing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03569412870515009712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2880090753488367036.post-87839652931896355002012-01-24T02:33:15.080+01:002012-01-24T02:33:15.080+01:00Looks very interesting!

(I tried that once, without an exhaust hood, and that did indeed produce a lot of smoke and smell!)Peter Bjerre Jensennoreply@blogger.com
