5 minutes to 1st is extremely fast. also, the turning point temperature seems very high.
during the summer months i usually load the beans at a slightly lower temperature than during the colder months. but i guess it's a bit warmer down here where I live than up in the good old Angleterre...
i have attached a roast log from a recent roast which turned out to be absolutely delicious, so it can't have been all that wrong...
i keep quite a bit of airflow on during the entire roast, starting it around the turning point. The red line (ET) reacts very quickly to changes in airflow.
1st crack was unusually fast here too, it often occurs at around 8:30 - 9:30 and the drop in ET is at that point a reflection of actual heat input. the gas comes all the way down, just to keep the burner on and usually stays down there until i drop the beans.

i still don't get notifications. can any of the mods tell if that is perhaps disabled on the site?
