Design Concept
| Roast beans by time - User has a full control over total roast time, target roasting temperature to end, fan speed, and heater power. These can be easily changed during the roast. The combination of variables that are subject to programming changes are virtually infinite (User should have knowledge of the roasting process to know when to change fan speed and/or heater power in order to control the roast for best results). | Roast beans by temperature - A Program consists of eight segments. Each segment consists of an amount of time, temperature, and fan speed. User predetermines these parameters for each segment and machine will control the temperature. User has a full control of segments when programming the roast, but only can change Target Temperature of each segment once the roast begins. |
Dynamic Roasting Control
| The user can change target time, target temperature, fan speed, and heater power at any time during the roast. | Only the target Temperature for the active segment can be modified after the roast is started. |
Profile
| Adjusted profile can be saved at the end of the roast and played back | Saved profile can be called and replayed |
End of Roast
| The roast can be stopped and the beans ejected at any time
the user chooses with the press of one button. | |
