I went and did it!!!!!!!
I pulled the trigger on a Golden 1.5K GR1 Plus roaster from Turkey! I've been looking and toying with the idea for my passion now for probably 3 years. This was just the best for me at the right time.
I've always wanted the ability to control my roast, gas fired, and quality built! I actually was able to buy the floor model that was about 3 months old since Joshua was upgrading to a 5K machine. He also provides delivery and installation that was part of my purchase. I'm handy but I wanted to make sure I had a "turn key" machine installed properly and ready to go! That's what I've got! Delivery approximately 8/24! Can't wait! Besides that, Patti's OK with it!!!!!!! Anyone wanting to check out the machine is welcome to visit once it's installed. We love company!! Guess I'll have a great working 1# Sono for sale soon!
Joshua is also bringing in a 500-800 gram sample roaster for demo by the end of August. This is not a cheaper alternative to other roasters. However for my needs, delivery and set-up, and a quality roaster, it was the BEST option for me!
