I've been on the lookout for the components to build my own SC/TO setup and I may have come across a TO, but it's a digital unit. I read in one of the links provided earlier in this thread that the digital models may not be the best choice for a roaster setup. The TO that has the dials is supposed to be better.

Does anyone use a digital TO or can the comment of the difference(s) between the digital and "anolouge" TO?

Sigr,

Turn OFF your caps lock button.  It makes it HARD to read, and is more obnoxious even than me telling you to use small letters.   :angel:

Thanks for the info on the thermometer, at that price with FREE shipping
I snagged 2.  You never know.

Nice looking roaster, I like the idea of the 3" spacer.  Will give it a try soon.

Thanks for the info on the thermometer. I'm gonna pick one up.

kuban,

Is that a digital (no dials) TO unit that you are using?

The advantage of the non-digital Sunpentown top would be that with a dial you can toin it up with one swell foop and not have to keep pushin' the stinkin' button.  That, and one less thing to go wrong.

Now the interesting test would be to see which model, the digital or the dial, holds the temps closer to where you set it.  Mine will cycle up and down with 10 degree swings, plus it likes to climb up gradually.  The climbing up part is ok, since that's usually what I want it to do.  The temp swings can be a pain tho'.  And it's dependent on batch sizes; bigger batches swing less, as they have more residual heat in the beans, and then when the heat kicks in the bigger size makes it reluctant to rise in temperature.

Kuban111 I have been to HD got the pipe thing and the strainer thing
went to wall mart could not find the 3" cake ring thing . Is the cake ring thing 12"dia.or 10"
I also snagged a temp probe from IHP thanks for thread.
I have been using 10" spring form pan for spacer.How do you keep the seal on and together?
Just hope I can make this thing look like a shining beacon from the darkest corner of the garage  ;D
