Product Description
The Specialty Coffee Association (SCA), a body merged from European Specialty Coffee Association (SCAE) and American Specialty Coffee Association (SCAA), promotes using infrared analysis to assess the degree of coffee roast. The method used is called the Agtron scale. A lower Agtron number indicates a higher caramelization and a deeper roasting degree. On the other hand, a higher number would indicate a lower caramelization and a lighter roast degree. This quantitative way can assist coffee roasters in determining the degree of roasted coffee more precisely which is imperative for managing quality and consistency. The Dipper NK-201 is a professional precision instrument for measuring the degree of roasted coffee. It is suitable for both whole coffee beans and ground coffee. The Dipper KN-201 provides a user-friendly interface with an excellent quality exterior. The built-in optical technology complies with the SCA Roast Color Classification System Scale enabling professional coffee roasters to accurately measure the Agtron roast degree and the roasting degree name.
Agtron numbers are defined as two scale expressions designed to meet the specific needs of different types of coffee roast.
Agtron Commercial Scale:
This was originally defined as a roast scale, developed primarily for large commercial plants, corresponding to the carbide ratio of soluble organic matter in order to evaluate soluble coffee in the form of dehydration. The measuring values ranging from 0 to 100, indicate deep to a shallow degree. However, as the market evolved, this type of measuring method is gradually replaced by other measuring equipment that turned to the primary use of assessing the degree of roasting.
Agtron Gourmet Scale:
To meet the development of better roasters’ machine performance and more extreme market roast demands, this higher resolution scale was born. This scale is typically ranging from 0 to 133, which has a wider measurement range than the Commercial Scale. Most products on the market now are fixed with the Gourmet scale. Dipper meter supports both scales and can be selected on-demand, in order to meet a wide range of application needs.
