Title: "Green" Commercial Roasters
Post by: Shannon22 on October 22, 2009, 03:16:41 PM

I'm trying to learn more about these no-afterburner smokeless roasters.  Like the Smart Roast or the Revelation.  Got any good sources?  I've scoured Loring's website and USRC's, and talked with Dan there, so I know the marketing materials but I didn't know if someone might know a little more...

Does anyone have one or roasted on one?  Is there a downside (besides the price tag)?

I've never seen it but they did mention "cleaner" about 5 times in the short vid for Smart Roast and looking at how the heat re-circ works I'd say make sure you are happy with that style of profile (roast effect).

But it looks interesting for sure.
