Hello, I friend of mine has a M6 Quest roaster (https://www.coffeeshrub.com/quest-m6-coffee-roaster.html). In summer he roasts outside but in wintertime this is done inside a barn and then 2-3 batches develop already quite some smoke which seems not healthy on the long run to work in. How should a basic venting system set up? Any suggestion? Thanks and regards!

Already provided with an exhaust outlet, just mount there a duct, like this: https://www.home-...ml#p694584 |

Hello, This is how I did the mod: - Removed the grill from the roaster where the smoke gets out - Took the top of a coctailshaker and squared it a bit in a vise to fit better in the hole - Fixed it to the roaster with a screw and sealed with some alu tape - Added a flexible tube with alu tape That's it! Did some testing today and the difference is very significant! Regards!
