Computer-controlled Coffee Roaster

This computer-controlled Coffee Roaster is not the first of its kind, but it is definitely one of the most elaborate to date. At the heart of it lies a Fuji PXR4 that can be connected to a laptop or computer via USB.

A fan inside the roaster controls the roasting process. The roasting chamber itself uses two tubes, one made of bakelite and the other a 3-inch diameter glass tube. To prevent damaging the setup and to allow for heat dissipation, this amazing Computer-Controlled Coffee Roaster uses a high temperature RTV (Room Temperature Vulcanizing) Silicone. A screen at the bottom of the device can be used to empty the roaster and get freshly roasted beans at any time.

What a great way to start off each morning. I can’t live without my coffee, and this is definitely a nerdgasmic way of getting a fresh cuppa!
