Roma Pro V1.6 Smart Home Kaffeeröster

I received a damaged product. It was missing the lid where the roasted beans are discharged, and there were some small broken black pieces inside. The entire heating assembly seems loose and wobbly. It is unusable in the condition it arrived in. The box says it is Version 1.5, whereas I ordered Version 1.6.

This was delivered no more than 20min ago and I already roasted my first batch. I’m never going to put this into manual mode and nerd out. All I’m going to do is put beans in and hit auto. It’s so incredibly easy to use! I’m so happy I went with this and highly recommend it. In less than 10min I had a medium roast done!

Two things: This roaster produces perfect roasts for me now with almost no work, and support for the product is wonderful.
The first machine I ordered arrived damaged. Not completely broken but with lots of little problems including the inability to come up to a high enough temperature to create anything but light roasts, which I do not drink.
After a bit of back and forth over a few days, they sent me a new machine which is perfect.
I had been roasting in a cast iron pan for several years and I was able to produce a pretty good dark-ish roast pretty reliably. But it took 20 minutes of constant stirring over a hot cooktop followed by another 10+ minutes to cool the beans and remove the chaff.
Now I just pout the weighed beans into the cylinder, select my roast type, press start and do something else while it does the work. Takes 20 minutes but I can do useful stuff in the kitchen while it works. Cooling is a one button press which works perfectly and removing the chaff has already been done by the machine and just needs to be emptied. And the roast is much more uniform and repeatable than my pan versions. I.e. it is a much better roast with much less work.
The price is very reasonable for the quality roasts it produces.
The only "con" is that you can't create, save, and reload specific roast profiles. But it you need to customize you can just take notes and easily control the temperature for your profile during the roast.
For me, this was a great choice at a reasonable price.

I wanted to leave a fair review of the Roma Pro V1.5. I bought it as a gift for a friend who is really into coffee, and he was very happy with it.

Overall, I think it’s a solid and fairly easy-to-use home coffee roaster, but it is important to follow the instructions. The AUTO mode is convenient, but you do need to use the recommended batch size, such as 150g or 300g depending on the setting. If the bean weight is off, the roast result may not be as consistent, which makes sense because different amounts of beans need different heat and airflow.

For everyday roasting, the AUTO mode works well. For anyone who wants to aim for a specific temperature or fine-tune the roast more closely, the manual mode is the better option. Coffee beans can vary a lot by origin, density, moisture level, and even room temperature, so having control over heat and fan speed is useful.

I also like the glass roasting chamber because you can actually watch the color of the beans change during the roast. The chaff separation works well too and helps reduce some smoke and mess. That said, roasting coffee will still create some smoke and aroma. If you want to keep things cleaner indoors, using it under a kitchen range hood is a smart idea.

This is not a completely “press one button and forget it” machine. There is a small learning curve at first, such as understanding the lid position, making sure the bean release chute is locked, and using the correct bean weight for the selected mode. After a few batches, it becomes much easier.

Overall, I think it’s a good home coffee roaster as long as you use it properly and take a little time to learn the basics.

It worked very well. We had a problem and the company refunded/replaced immediately. Highly recommend.

Not a pro, but I've had this for about 2 months and have yet to burn a batch! And believe me, I have tried!

Fantastic all around. Easy to use easy to clean.

Brilliant, thoughtful design all around. Great customer service that went the extra mile to win me over.

Received the unit with the digital screen not visible through the window and the roaster not heating up.

Update: slow but excellent customer service! They replaced the machine with a new unit and a 10% refund!

It’s very refreshing to receive excellent customer service!

I totally recommend!

The unit arrived with a damaged handle. I contacted the company and had exceptional customer service. It did affect performance, but they quickly sent a new handle. I have roasted coffee for years with different types of roasters. This is a very good unit for medium roasts, mostly city. Manual mode (which I prefer) does take some time to figure out. I have not quite roasted to a French or Italian roast yet. May have to double roast for that to happen. Machine has lots of safety shut-offs. Chaff try works well, except some beans do get in there when the fan speed is high. All in all, very positive roasting experience.

Quality home coffee roaster. Initial one star created for heating element failure. A safety feature failed. I didn't know how to repair. After several days delays tech support emailed a detailed explanation for proper repair. Tech support followed with more details not observed at the Owners Manual.

I couldn’t be happier. I have it set up in my garage for ventilation. My only complaint is that it is very noisy. The coffee is worth the noise.

Please with this roaster, it holds 300 g which is a good amount of coffee to roast. It performs really well. I prefer a lighter roasted coffee.
It's also got some automatic features which are pretty cool.

It came well packaged, seems to be great quality, it’s nearly effortless to use, and it creates stunning results, If it lasts for years I’ll consider it a treasure.

Best customer support I have ever received. This machine does everything you need, virtually smokeless. Easy to master. Easy to maintain. If you cannot get the roast you want, look in the mirror. It certainly isn’t the machine’s fault. I have roasted most of the air roasters out there. This is without question, best bang for the buck.

excellent

I’m writing a review because of how few reviews are posted. This is an upgrade from a popcorn maker. I drink a lot of coffee and wanted something that can roast 300g at a time (was only roasting 50g in the popper) and that I could use back to back with consistent results. I also didn’t want to babysit the coffee during the whole roast because we already know how many variables are at play in the roasting and brewing process. I like the automatic roast profiles.
Quick tip, if the machine shows a snowflake and you cannot get it to roast check the almost invisible locking switch in the chute on the side. If that is clicked to unlock it will never roast.

Love this! I successfully melted a lesser brand. This one has very much less smoke the ability to manual and automatic . I am enjoying automatic.

💖 Mago Maga Roma Pro – Making Home Coffee Roasting Easy and Fun! 💖
Before getting the Mago Maga Roma Pro, I was always curious about home coffee roasting but worried it might be too complicated or hard to control. After using this machine for a while, I can confidently say it makes home roasting much more accessible and lets me enjoy truly fresh coffee with ease! ☕
✅ Easy to Use, Great for Beginners
The machine offers both automatic and manual modes, which is perfect for all skill levels. I started with the automatic mode, selecting different roast levels, and the results were consistently even. As I got more comfortable, I experimented with manual settings to fine-tune my roast exactly how I like it.
🔥 Consistent Roasting, Amazing Aroma
I’ve mainly been roasting Ethiopian and Colombian beans, and the Roma Pro does a great job with even roasting. I can clearly hear the first crack, and the beans come out with a beautiful, uniform color. The aroma while brewing is noticeably richer compared to pre-roasted store-bought beans!
📌 Perfect Capacity for Daily Use
The machine allows you to roast anywhere from 80g to 300g at a time, which is just the right amount for a few days’ worth of fresh coffee. No need to store roasted beans for too long—just roast what you need and enjoy peak freshness!
🎯 Final Thoughts
The Mago Maga Roma Pro has made me truly appreciate the joy of fresh coffee roasting. Instead of relying on pre-roasted beans, I love being able to control the flavor myself. If you're looking to get into home roasting without the hassle, this is definitely a great choice! ✨

I’m new to coffee roasting so I was not expecting great coffee at my first try. However, this roaster produced a very satisfying first batch of medium-roast espresso, using the automatic function.
I liked that the coffee beans were roasted very evenly.

I am also very pleased with the excellent customer service of the seller. I had initially purchased this roster through their website but they immediately let me know that the product would take about a month to arrive because it would come from China. They gave me the option to buy it from Amazon for a two day delivery with Prime. I did so and they quickly cancelled the initial order and refunded my credit card. They also reimbursed me the price difference. They even gave me the Black Friday sale price even though the purchase was done before the sale. They were very professional and super quick to respond to my emails throughout the purchase and reimbursement process.
