BENEFITS OF MICRO-ROASTER VS
TRADITIONAL DRUM ROASTERS

Traditional drum roasters roast beans unevenly – the exterior of the bean is typically roasted much darker than the interior. This can result in unwanted tastes such as bitterness or even a grassy, sour taste from the under-roasted interior. In contrast, U-Roast Convection Roasting ensures even roast development throughout each bean, resulting in pure taste at the desired roast profile.

Traditional drum roasting

Uneven roast

Burning chaff releases smoke, contaminants.

Brunt taste from over roasted surface, burning

In lighter roasts, inside can be under roasted, contributing a sour or grassy taste.

Water content can be released too early by high temps, reducing caramelization.

Consistency depends upon operator; often varies form roast to roast.

U-Roast convection roasting

Even roast

Beans roasted gently by hot air.

Chaff and small particles are blown away by air stream; not present later to affect taste.

Narrow roast profiles attained (inside and outside of bean roasted to same degree).

No bitter or sour tastes.

Water released slowly for optimum caramelization.

Consistency delivered by computerized toastmaster; same roast profile every time.
