Dev, So if I go there, I can click on one of the data files (say flxf00.gdas.1984050500.grb2). From there, I can click on the link next to NetcdfSubset, and I get a web form for selecting the subset. If I check the box next to Temperature_surface and click submit, I get back a netcdf file with the data in it--and only data for Temperature_surface Do those steps work for you?
