Keeping your coffee roaster running smoothly is crucial for any roaster, big or small. Unlike cars with set service intervals, coffee roasters rely on preventative maintenance based on usage.
This article dives into the key aspects of maintaining your Genio roaster, helping you avoid downtime and ensure consistent, delicious roasts.
BUILT IN MAINTENANCE SYSTEM
Your Genio comes with a built-in maintenance app on the tablet. This app provides a schedule listing all the necessary maintenance tasks, categorized by frequency (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.). The app even tracks your roasts and reminds you when specific tasks are due, like chaff collector cleaning.
DETAILED VIDEO GUIDES
The Genio Hub online portal offers video guides for each maintenance task. These guides walk you through the process step-by-step, including:
-
Required tools
-
Estimated time
-
Clear instructions
FOCUS ON AIRFLOW
While bearings are important, airflow is the most critical aspect of roaster maintenance. A dirty fan and chimney can lead to:
-
Reduced efficiency
-
Increased fire risk
-
Unexpected breakdowns
OTHER MAINTENANCE TIPS
-
Gas: Have a reliable gas installer for emergencies and consider yearly maintenance on the gas regulator to prevent clogs.
-
Cleanliness: A clean roaster allows you to spot potential problems like loose screws or worn components during routine cleaning.
-
Listen to your machine: Pay attention to unusual sounds, smells, or performance issues. These can be early signs of a problem.
Preventative maintenance is key to a long-lasting and efficient coffee roaster. By following the simple steps outlined above, you can ensure your Genio roaster continues to deliver perfect roasts for years to come.
