What Is the Sample PRO 100 Coffee Roaster?

The Sample PRO 100 coffee roaster is a compact, precision-engineered roasting machine specifically designed for sample roasting small batches of green coffee. Ideal for coffee labs, exporters, importers, and roasteries, it allows professionals to test and profile different coffees before committing to full-scale production roasts.

It enables:

• Consistent replication of roast profiles

• Rapid testing of multiple coffee lots

• Accurate sensory evaluation

Unlike conventional production roasters, the Sample PRO 100 is calibrated for speed and feedback, allowing the user to experiment with roast levels and flavor development with less risk and waste. This makes it indispensable in any cupping lab or training environment.

Who Should Use the Sample PRO 100?

The Sample PRO 100 is suited for:

• Coffee laboratories conducting daily cupping and quality tests

• Roasters developing new roast profiles or evaluating green bean samples

• Exporters and importers needing to showcase sample roasts to potential buyers
