The Nucleus Link convection roaster is a high-precision device that was specially developed as a sample roaster. It enables coffee beans to be roasted evenly - regardless of external conditions. This makes it ideal for communication between coffee producers and roasters and as a reliable companion during farm visits.
The Nucleus Link is delivered in a shockproof box and with practical accessories to determine the density of the beans. An intuitive app helps you find the best settings for your roasts - based on the altitude and the type and density of the beans.
Thanks to its ease of use, the Nucleus Link is not only suitable for professionals, but also for ambitious and quality-conscious home roasters.
