Vacuum Bag Sealers

We bought the Weston Pro 2300. Great suction doesn't seal our craft bags and has no way to readjust settings. Anyone have a recommendation for a brand or specific sealer that would seal craft bags? Ideally it would seal as long as you want so it would seal multiple types and materials of bags. Thanks!

Mill City 3k and 6k Roasters

Thanks Bodka Coffee! So you'd say a 5 or 6k is more reasonable for that volume? What do you think about using a Hottop as a sample roaster? Anyone selling a used one? Thanks!

Mill City 3k and 6k Roasters

Thanks so much for the reply! I spoke with Steve and he seems great and like you said they seem to really know roasting! My main concern is that in learning to roast a 6k machine may waste too many beans but I think we will quickly outgrow a 3k. Any tips? Thanks for the response!
