Press 1LB option on P1 profile and add all the extra time you can. If you dont use an extension cord, you will not lose much power.
I dont take my beans much past 5-10 seconds into 2nd crack, ever. I just dont like the "burnt taste". I like the Fruit, the citrus, the coco, and the baking spice that gets burnt out of beans when taken deep into or past 2nd crack.
I follow the same cleaning regement as the other above. Simple Green too.
I do not preheat with the beans inside the unit. However, if you want to go deep into 2nd crack, that would probably be the way to do it.

Yah I wouldn't really go past the beginning of second crack, just wanted to make sure you could. I will likely be roasting in the garage, nice to know I can open the door without shutting the cool down off.
I am likely going to order one within the next week or two.
Thanks for the info.
