Artisan
Visual scope for coffee roasters
WARNING: pre-release builds may not work. Use at your own risk.
Summary
Artisan is a software that helps coffee roasters record, analyze, and control roast profiles. When used in conjunction with a thermocouple data logger or a proportional–integral–derivative controller (PID controller), this software can automate the creation of roasting metrics to help make decisions that influence the final coffee flavor.
