Replacement Solenoid for Bean Eject
malabone	#1 Posted on 01/05/2023 4:58 AM
Newbie Posts: 1 Joined: December 23, 2022	Hi There New forum member here. I am based in the UK and have an original Hottop roaster, bought from new… maybe twenty years ago? A very long time anyway. I have been doing weekly roasts on it all of these years and something has finally failed. I think the solenoid has given up. Does anyone know a part number and supplier for a replacement solenoid that will work... in the UK or Europe would be truly excellent, but US would work. If not, a specification for the solenoid that I could use to chase down a replacement, maybe? I have contacted the US distributor and the manufacturer in Taiwan who have both been really helpful, but an original replacement part would cost me $150 to get hold of. I'm hoping for a slightly cheaper solution than that. At the moment, I am using the roaster without the cover and manually dumping the beans using a pair of pliers - not ideal! Thanks in advance for any help Martin
