to access all of the sides and the top of the roaster. Never use the
roaster on a soft surface of tablecloth as that will affect the airflow.

the roaster. Do not obstruct the vent or place anything on top of it.

process and some surfaces can get very hot.
Take care as touching these surfaces may
cause injury.
Do not touch any parts of the lid or air vent.
Do not touch surfaces of the roaster that are
within 25mm of the lid.
This is the hot surface symbol.
It indicates that the surface is
hot and must not be touched.

06 — ROASTING: PRE-HEATING
The IKAWA Pro App will show that the roaster is pre-heating by
displaying the current temperature in the roaster.
If you want to cancel the pre-heat mode, press the top button on the
roaster. The roaster will start to cool-down (see following pages).
Once the roaster has heated to the starting temperature, the status
light on the roaster blinks red.
If the roaster temperature does not reach and stabilise at the
profile starting temperature, or the user does not press the top
button after three minutes, the roaster will automatically switch into
cool down mode and the status light will flash blue.
If the roaster is cold and/or profile starting temperature is high and/
or the profile starting fan speed is high the roaster may not reach
and stabilise at the starting temperature within two minutes. If this
happens try pre-heating the roaster again after the cool down mode
has finished. Status light

Turn the doser halfway so that all the beans fall through the hole of
the doser into the Roasting Chamber.
The fan will stop while the doser is open and status light will blink
red and green.
Turn the doser back so that it closes off the Roasting Chamber
completely.
The fan will speed up again and the status light on the roaster
should stop blinking and be steadily red (if this is not the case, the
doser is most probably not shut properly).
The roaster will now start the roasting process.

During the roasting process an the IKAWA Pro App connected to the
roaster via Bluetooth and will plot the measured temperature.
Even if the App is not connected, the roaster will execute the profile
stored in it’s memory – the last one used.
If the roaster has been programmed with a profile that is not suitable for
the coffee, the beans can burn or in extreme cases catch fire.
We advise you follow these steps during the roasting process.

08 — TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM:
The roaster starts to cool during a roast and will no longer heat
regardless of the profile it is programmed with.
CAUSE:
A thermally activated switch prevents the case heating to an unsafe
temperature. This switch should not activate under normal roasting
conditions but may activate if the roaster was programmed with an
extreme roast or in high ambient temperatures.
If the thermal safety switch is activated the heating element will switch
off and the roaster will cool down, although it will otherwise appear to
operate as normal.
SOLUTION:
Allow the roaster to cool for at least 30 min. Switch it on and see if it
works again. If the the roaster does not work contact IKAWA.
PROBLEM:
The light on the roaster shines a purple colour and the
roaster does not work.
CAUSE:
The roaster in an error state that could be triggered by a
number of problems.
The most likely causes are:
1. The temperature sensor is broken.
2. The ambient air temperature is less than 10 �C.
SOLUTION:
1. Contact support@ikawacoffee.com,
quoting your roaster serial number.
2. Try using the roaster in a warmer place.

19
PROBLEM:
The beans inside the roaster do not rotate.
CAUSE:
The roaster may be programmed with a roast
profile with inadequate air flow.
SOLUTION:
Program the roaster with a higher fan speed using
the IKAWA Pro App.
PROBLEM:
The beans inside the roaster do not rotate.
CAUSE:
This may happen because your beans have not roasted
sufficiently. They may be too heavy to be transferred from
the Roasting Chamber into the jar.
SOLUTION:
1. Turn off your machine and disconnect the power supply.
2. Ensure your machine is cooled down by letting it stand
for at least 30 minutes.
3. Then take out the doser and jar.
4. Remove the glass lid by pulling upwards on each side
(the lid is attached magnetically).
5. You can remove the beans by tilting the machine on it’s
side to pour them out.

09 — MAINTAINANCE, REPAIR AND DISPOSAL
Before attempting any maintenance ensure
that the roaster is unplugged from any power
source, and that the roaster is at
room temperature.
WARNING:
Do not repair the IKAWA system yourself.
By doing so you invalidate any warranty, and
risk injury or death.
WARNING:
Ensure that no liquid penetrates the holes
in the bottom of the roasting chamber.
The jar can be washed with warm, soapy water but only when the cork
grip is removed. The cork should not get wet. The jar cannot go in the
dishwasher or microwave.
To clean the glass lid, first remove the doser. Second, remove the glass
lid by pulling upwards on each side (the lid is attached magnetically).
You can wash the glass lid including the metal vent with warm, soapy
water. The lid cannot go in the dishwasher or microwave.
To clean the roasting chamber use a damp cloth or pan scrubber. It
is very important to ensure that the sponge or pan scrubber is not
waterlogged so water does not escape and penetrate the holes in the
bottom of the roasting chamber.
If your system is not working correctly, refer to Chapter 08
(Troubleshooting).
If your IKAWA Pro Sample Roaster is no longer working and not under
warranty, contact the team at support@ikawacoffee.com
for assistance.
DISPOSAL:
Waste and electrical products should not be disposed of with
household waste. Please contact our technical team for recycling/
disposal advice as regional variations apply.
