I don't thnk anyone other than a museum or collector would be
interested in this piece of coffee history. I found them on two places
on the net.

The first states that they are for sale:
http://www.aloha.net/~pope/coffee.htm
But the page is dated ©1998.

The other seems to be on a personal website, and it appears to be a
copy of a page from an unrelated commercial website:
http://www.eg.bucknell.edu/~mead/HomePage/subpages/prod.unimax2000.html

Looking at it, I wonder how many folks who did buy them kept them on
the kitchen counter, and wandered into the kitchen in the early AM
hours, in a state of caffeine deprivation, and poured a quart of water
into the top after placing a filter and ten scoops of coffee in the
cooling tray? ;-)

The funny pasrt ids the description on the page where they are
allegedly for sale:

"The Unimax 2000 has a one touch automated roasting, cooling,
chaffing, operation for your choice of 9 types of 'coffee roasts'.
This machine is a roaster only with a capacity of 2 ounces to a half a
pound. >>> It is good for commercial use <<< or a situation where you
serve 6-25 cups of coffee regularly.

If I had a business where a roaster that could handle UP TO 8 ounces
of green coffee was a good idea, I think I would have to take it as a
sign that it was time to go into another business.

Randy,

Those links on the web are truly old... Long ago I contacted the website
owners and they mentioned that they posted them when Unimax was still in
business.

I would love to add another roaster to my rotation but without any kind of
support for the item and a userbase that is virtually zero... I think I'll
just continue to use my HT and Alp. By the way... it's up to $188! That's
almost as bad as that $180 Chemex electric machine.
