I wanted the T configuration but was put off by some comments about the PITA of having to take out three small screws each time you clean the chaff which is often compared to the J.
Asked Mr Li if he could just do me a "quick connect" for the T, at extra cost of course. He is presently working on that as of a week ago.
That is the only thing holding up my order.

What? I don't know where you read that. I never have to take off 3 screws to clean the chaff.

I am ready to take the plunge and order the Huky 500T. Thanks to all that have given me some great advice and things to consider. I'll be offering up a Hottop B-2K+ as soon as I get the required number of posts in.
I think Mr. Li has addressed quite a few of the concerns from the older models. I think I reviewed my order to the point of confusion so many times that if I miss something I'll just have it shipped later.
Cheers,
Wayne G

I went with the 500T, perforated drum, slow motor and all 3 digital TC's installed. I ordered all of the standard extras except the drum. I ordered the 72 rpm motor as an extra. I will order the Phidget and use Artisan. Mr. Li will angle the trier 10 degrees and install the angle piece in the chute so the beans don't hang up. I was overwhelmed with info so I hope I did Ok.

this is the exact setup I'm using now and I'm extremely pleased. I logged over 1000 roasts with my solid/72 setup and a mere 20ish on the new configuration... My results with the perforated/slow are so much better. Better development for a given profile.

After several messages back and forth Mr Li finally said they did have this prob with earlier models but it is now resolved.
Told him would have my configuration ready in a few days.
Like WayneG mentioned have studied to the point of confusion for so long. Lots of good stuff keeps happening tho, like 2AM this morning. Surprised to see where Wayne mentioned prob of bean hang-up and tryer 10 degree solution. Afraid if don't specify this in order may get old zero degree part. Thanks Wayne.
BUT WAIT, YET AGAIN...(sorry all caps too tired to retype) johnny4lsu comes along and says "I logged over 1000 roasts with my solid/72 setup and a mere 20ish on the new configuration.." And seems to like the slow/perf config. I was going to do Waynes machine except 72rpm/solid. Solid because that is practically a Probat with deep delicious roasts.
Even Mr Li suggests I may like solid drum better. But Susan over on Huky Forum went from solid to perf like Johnny. "Better development for a given profile".......??????.
Seems someone said perforated is easier to learn. Not interested in easy. Interested in quality of the roasts, Which one would win most roasting competitions.
Gotta rethink again?????
Suggestions?
