Short Cord Instructions
CAUTION: A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a long cord. Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care
is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating should be at least as
great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and the cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
Polarized Plug
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this plug is intended to fi t into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fi t fully
into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fi t, contact a qualifi ed electrician. Do not attempt
to modify the plug in any way.
3CR-1000 Series Coffee Bean Roaster
Welcome to the
World of Home Coffee Bean Roasting!
Congratulations on your purchase of a new NESCO® Professional Coffee Bean
Roaster! You will be able to create the greatest tasting cup of coffee in the world
at a fraction of the price you’d pay in a gourmet coffee shop.
WARNING
NEVER LEAVE ROASTER UNATTENDED WHILE IN OPERATION.
With the NESCO® name, you can be assured of a quality appliance, and we’ll
provide tips and suggestions on how to roast your own coffee beans to perfection
in your own home. We provide easy to understand instructions on how to roast
and store your coffee beans, all in the comfort of your own home kitchen. Unlike many other coffee bean roasters, your NESCO®Professional Coffee Bean
Roaster is one of the quietest machines on the market today, and features a
unique Catalytic Converter and ceramic fi lter system that reduces the odor and
smoke associated with coffee roasters.
Roasting coffee beans at home allows you to roast coffee beans exactly as
you like them... light or dark, and with your own special blend of beans if you
choose. YOU have complete control of the freshness and fl avor of your cup of
coffee.
Five Reasons to Roast Your Own Coffee Beans:
Freshness - If you use store-bought coffee, chances are it will be stale by the
time you brew it. Imagine what it’s like to drink a cup of coffee made with
beans roasted a few minutes ago, not weeks ago.
Flavor - You’ll be able to select a number of distinct fl avors and aromas from
genuine fresh coffee.
Fun - NESCO
popping a bowl of popcorn.
Creative - Roasting at home allows you to create your own special blends.
Create your own favorite ‘signature’ blend of coffee beans.
Savings - Home roasting can save you up to 50% on every pound of gourmet
coffee you drink.
With your NESCO® Professional Coffee Bean Roaster, you’ve taken the fi rst
step towards a truly fresh cup of coffee. Get ready to enjoy the best cup of
coffee you ever tasted!

Professional Coffee Bean Roaster
Fig. 1
Roaster Base contains the control panel, heating elements, Catalytic Converter
and mounting base for roasting chamber. A two-speed fan directs the heated air
through the green coffee beans in the ‘roast’ cycle and blows cool air through the
roasted beans, during the ‘cooling’ cycle, to stop the roasting process.
Roaster Chamber holds up to 5 oz. of green coffee beans and features a unique
auger drive mechanism that mixes the coffee beans so they roast evenly.
Chaff Cup collects the ‘fl uffy’ chaff generated when roasting coffee beans.
Screen / Front Seal: The stainless steel Screen fi ts inside the Front Seal and
prevents fi ne chaff particles from entering the Catalytic Converter. The Front
Seal keeps smoke and odor inside the machine.
Rear Seal prevents smoke and odor from leaking out at the Catalytic Converter.
Cover directs the smoke and odor from the Roasting Chamber to the Catalytic
Converter where it is virtually eliminated. It is conveniently hinged to the
Roaster Base and activates the Safety Cutoff Switch when the Cover is latched.
Safety Cutoff Switch allows the roaster to operate only when the Cover is
properly latched. It will turn the roaster off if the Cover is accidentally opened
during a roast cycle.
A patented Catalytic Converter removes the smoke and most of the odor
associated with roasting coffee. No other home coffee roaster has this feature.
