CBR-101 GEARED MOTOR ASSEMBLY

Old motor was dying and this replacement works great! Easy swap out.

8 years of roasting, a strange repetitive clunking noise began. No, it was not the bean chamber or the gate flapping or missing rubber bumpers. We suspected the motor, so I ordered that, and replaced it quite easily. Thanks so much for the how-to guide and videos. Very Satisfied!

But .... aha, I discovered a crack in the motor gear's plastic teeth. Argh. Clunk source identified. And the motor gear is out of stock. I used some super adhesive glue from my friend the furniture maker, reinstalled, and so far it is working ok. But I cannot wait to order 2 of those little gears! Hoping the cargo arrives soon for me!

Thanks so much to the Gene Cafe team!

I received the motor in three day. We were able to replace the old motor and now we are roasting again. Very satisfied!

Motor died on Saturday I ordered on line the same day. Gene was back up on Thursday morning!! Fast ship a d Great YouTube instructions!

The motor started to slow down, and when I wrote to Dylan at Gene Cafe, he recommended installing a new motor. It's a very tight fit and I had to use my wife's fingers to get to the screws holding it in. Other than that, it's relatively easy to replace and the new motor works wonderfully. The roaster is about 10 years old, and I've replaced a number of various parts, thanks to Gene Cafe's online videos.
