FOB, a fellow coffee entusiast on the Dutch forum, posted about a fun little hack he did on his tiny Iroast-2 to tame the heater.   https://www.koffiepraat.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?f=59&t=13359 Below I post an English translation with his pictures: I recently started trying to roast coffee myself in an I-Roast 2, a small fluid bed burner that can roast a maximum of 150 grams of coffee at a time. This is fun to do and after the first kilogram it is not only drinkable, but also tasty. But it burns very quickly. And even though the temperature sensor doesn't seem to be very reliable, it does seem to burn hotter than the set temperature. A post from years ago on a forum of our Australian colleagues describes that the power can be reduced by replacing a resistor. I decided to give this a try. I don't know if there are other forum members with the same roaster because it has been out of the market for a number of years. But I'll describe the process here in case it helps anyon...
