After the old forum software breaking in a way that we were unable to fix, we've migrated the site to a new platform.
Some elements aren't working as we'd hoped - some avatars didn't survive the transition, and we're still having issues with attachments that weren't added as inline images, but we're hoping to have that all sorted out soon.

KKTO Wire Agitator as Alternative
I have been asked by email many times to design an easy DIY agitator to suit all variations of the KKTO roaster
It posed a few challenges but I was up to the task
After some 20 or so designs trialed and tested I found the best performing design was archived by using the wire strands from a whisk, directly coupled onto the shaft
The design brief was set to myself to be -
1) Economical easy to obtain parts / items
2) Home handyman can make it
3) Work equally well as the solid blade
4) Adjustable to suit any KKTO variant roaster
5) Adjustable at time of build to any width of roast chamber
The design brief was actualy exceeded
Below is a series of build photos and a diagram for all to follow easily
Parts required to do the job - shaft, wire, securing plate,
