I have only had my Gene Cafe for a few weeks now, but was surprised yesterday that it stopped in the middle of a roast. 7 mins into 15.
The beans were very chaffy. But a sudden stop didn't seem to be a good idea, I had smoke pouring out of everywhere, and was afraid that it would catch fire.
After 5 minutes, it started to respond again and I was able to engage the cooling cycle.
Is this normal, has anyone else had this problem?
