What does that add up to? A larger 8 oz batch size!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is a single knob that controls heat, fan, and time - just push the knob to toggle between parameters. A quick turn of the knob to the right will display real-time temperature readings - no need to add a thermocouple to the roast chamber! There are now 9 levels of heat adjustment compared to having a Low, Medium, and High adjustment. We like the general design concept because it doesn't try to automate anything and allows direct user control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chaff collector works well and, although it doesn't have a smoke reducer, the top of the machine slows the flow of smoke so roasting under your oven's hood fan will eliminate most of the smoke. The stronger fan in the SR800 does a great job of agitating the beans and the new, wider roast chamber allows for a more even roast compared to the older SR500. Switching to \"cool\" in order to extend the roast is a good trick to help with roast control. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne last thing that's great about both the SR800 and SR540 is that they're really popular.
