The product, in the report: NESCO coffee bean roaster (CR-04-13). Purchased from Amazon. Black body with some metal covering outside. About 10 inches tall. Model CR-04-13 Model 0 78262 01195 9
I was using a NESCO coffee bean roaster (CR-04-13) to roast 3 oz of green coffee beans. This was my second time roasting beans with this product. From the first time, I learned that roasting makes some smoke so I decided to roast in the bathroom with an exhaust fan. I placed it in the bathtub. The bathtub was completely dry when I used the product. It started smoking really badly after a few minutes of use on medium roast setting and I had to unplug it to stop the machine. It charred all the beans and melted the plastic lid. It kept producing smoke until it was cooled.
I am glad that it did not catch on fire but my apartment was filled with white smoke. I believe that this product is inherently unsafe. It does not seem to be designed properly to cut the power in case of overheating.
