Behmor Coffee Roaster with Chaff Collector and Drum ExposedThe Behmor 2020SR home coffee roaster is an award-winning roasting machine developed in the United States and trusted by coffee enthusiasts since 2007. Designed for serious home roasting, it combines professional drum roasting technology with an easy-to-use interface, allowing users to roast fresh coffee conveniently at home.

With its thoughtful design and advanced features, the Behmor 2020SR enables home users to produce café-quality roasted coffee while maintaining simplicity and reliability.

Smoke-Reduced Indoor Roasting

One of the standout features of the Behmor 2020SR is its patented Smoke Suppression Technology. Unlike many small roasters that generate heavy smoke during roasting, this system significantly reduces smoke output.

This makes it much more suitable for indoor use in a typical home kitchen, providing a cleaner roasting experience compared with many other desktop machines.

Large Global Community of Home Roasters

The Behmor has built one of the largest communities of home coffee roasting enthusiasts worldwide. Thousands of owners actively share roasting tips, roast profiles, and troubleshooting advice online.

In particular, the Behmor Home Roaster Facebook Group provides a supportive environment where users exchange knowledge and help each other refine their roasting skills.

Extensive Online Tutorials

The Behmor is one of the most widely documented home roasters on YouTube. Searching for Behmor coffee roasting reveals hundreds of demonstrations, roast guides, and tutorials created by coffee enthusiasts and professionals.

This large amount of online content makes it easier for new users to learn roasting techniques and develop their own roast profiles.

Infrared Drum Roasting Technology

The Behmor uses a drum roasting system combined with quartz infrared heating elements, allowing multiple heat transfer methods to work together:

  • Conduction

  • Convection

  • Radiant infrared heat

This combination helps achieve even heat distribution and deeper roast development, resulting in coffee with richer aroma, fuller body, and balanced flavour.

Flexible Roasting Controls

The Behmor 2020SR offers two roasting modes to suit both beginners and experienced home roasters.

Pre-Program Mode

Users can select from five preset roasting profiles, each designed with specific time and heat curves to produce consistent roasting results.

Manual Mode

For greater control, the manual mode allows users to adjust:

  • Heat level

  • Roasting time

  • Drum speed

This flexibility enables experimentation with different roast levels and flavour profiles.

Generous Roasting Capacity

Compared with many machines in the same category, the Behmor provides a relatively large roasting capacity.

Typical roasting capacity:

  • Approximately 100 g in about 8.5 minutes

  • Maximum batch size of 453 g (1 lb)

  • Recommended batch size of around 200 g for optimal consistency

This makes it suitable for regular home use while still allowing experimentation with different beans.

Quiet Operation and Easy Roast Monitoring

The Behmor 2020SR is designed to operate quietly during the roasting process, making it suitable for use in a home environment without excessive noise.

For better visibility, the built-in roasting chamber light can be switched on at any time, allowing you to observe the beans as they develop during roasting. Users can also briefly open the door to check the colour and roast progression more clearly.

If you need to end the roast early, simply press the cooling button to immediately begin the cooling cycle. This feature gives you greater control over the final roast level and helps prevent over-roasting.

  • Fuller body and deeper flavour

  • Greater consistency between batches
