Artisan v2.6.0

 


We dedicate this release to the constructive ones, the creatives, the makers, the innovators, the open ones, the integrators, the ones that lead us forward to make this a better planet for all of us and put the destructive ones, the duplicators and obstructors to shame.

Probat POP UP


Marko got invited by Probat to join their POP UP series on YouTube. This one is on NORM ROAST, a protocol for determining emission levels and energy consumption of roasting machines.

In this live session, Marko reports why he initiated this project and what the outcomes so far are. Together with you and Probat he puts this theory into practice.

Probe Arrays


There are a number of reasons why using an array of probes to measure temperatures inside a roasting machine, instead of using single probes, seems to be a good idea. The intrinsic redundancy of probe arrays allows a machine to handle probe failures silently and to report them early on to the operator, avoiding down time. Another advantage is using averages of all readings per sampling time. This increases the stability compared to single probes. Averaging of readings gathered in parallel avoids also the main disadvantage of common software based smoothing, the introduction of delays caused by averaging readings gathered sequentially. Are probe arrays worth it?

10 degrees above FCs


Michael just asked me to extend the alarm system of Artisan to allow him to add an alarm that would speak to him once his bean temperature increased by 10 degrees after first crack start.
