Abstract:
A bean roasting system includes a roasting chamber, a blower, a variable diverter and a controller. The roasting chamber, the blower and the variable diverter each is disposed at least partially within a recirculating gas flow path. The blower is configured to provide a flow stream of gas through the recirculating gas flow path. The variable diverter is configured to split the gas flow path into at least two flow paths including a treated flow path and a bypass flow path. The treated flow path includes a series arrangement of a gas heater and a catalytic converter. The variable diverter is configured to control a percentage of a flow stream of gas that is diverted into the bypass flow path. The controller is configured to activate different predetermined operating modes for the bean roasting system by controlling a state of the variable diverter and a state of the heater.

Claim (Index 12):
The bean roasting system of  claim 11 , wherein the plurality of different predetermined operating modes includes a roast development mode in which the heater power is reduced relative to the recovery ramp mode and the variable diverter diverts more than 50 percent of the gas flow path to the bypass flow path.
