North Coffee TJ-067 / JYR-1DA Roaster Early Discovery Notes
Drum speed and evenness of roast even on the few 1.5kg loads I did was more than adequate.

North Coffee TJ-067 / JYR-1DA Roaster Early Discovery Notes
Quite surprised that there is an assumption that North Coffee actually manufactures anything? What they badge as TJ ... has been around a lot longer known as JYR-1D amongst others names and predates the North Coffee websites existence as far as I am aware.

North Coffee TJ-067 / JYR-1DA Roaster Early Discovery Notes
In the US the biggest reason not to go Electric would be your 110V unless you aleady have a 220V circuit at home.

I think it may be a problem for you if you want a gas powered one as the plastic may not like the flames? And on the HX or Dual boiler machine the Izzo will hold its own for shot quality against most

Hi there, They are a dip tube group head. The 1.5 bar is a maximum pressure and I find running mine at around 1.05-1.1 bar works for the best shots. The PID on the machine may be best avoided for you due to your location and potential delays with spare parts the basic machine has a manual fill
