HEAT SETTING

NOTE:
These are only recommendations and may vary
based on altitude, humidity, line voltage and ambient air
temperature.
As your roast progresses your bean loft will rise because the beans double in size and get lighter. You can
progressively turn down the bean loft to maintain 3-5 inches above the bean bed.
You can increase or decrease the heat setting to achieve the temperature you need.
Roasting times may vary due to room temperature, or if machine is warm or cold. Always monitor the batch
while roasting, NEVER leave unattended and watch the bean temperature to achieve the desired roast. You will
quickly learn which settings work best for your roasting style.
If roasting below a 2lb batch the bean temperature may not read accurately.
Roasting on the Artisan X-e Base Model is very easy. Never leave your roaster unattended. If you lose your bean
loft you will ruin your batch and possibly damage your Roaster. Coffee beans will catch on fire if they stop
circulating.
