The journey to an exceptional cup of coffee doesn’t begin at the café—it starts with the bean. And long before a roast hits the production line, its potential must be carefully evaluated. That’s where the Sample PRO 100 shines. Created for professionals who demand accuracy and repeatability, this powerful sample roaster ensures every decision is informed by data, flavor, and consistency.
Developed by Coffee Pro Direct, the Sample PRO 100 is a precision-engineered, multi-barrel roaster trusted by coffee labs, exporters, importers, and roasteries around the world. Whether you're analyzing a new harvest or refining profiles for production, this machine puts total control at your fingertips.
In this comprehensive guide, we'll dive into the features, use cases, and unique advantages of the Sample PRO 100—and why it’s become a cornerstone of quality control in specialty coffee.
The Sample PRO 100 is a high-performance, multi-barrel sample roaster with a 100g capacity per chamber. It’s built for evaluating green coffee in labs, cooperatives, and roasteries where accurate cupping results are vital.
It’s used by cuppers, Q graders, sourcing teams, educators, and exporters across more than 60 countries to perform side-by-side comparisons of beans, roast profiles, and origins.
Before green coffee becomes a delicious brew, it must be roasted and cupped. Sample roasting allows stakeholders to:
Assess potential of beans before buying
Compare roast profiles
Develop consistent product lines
Calibrate sensory expectations
With the Sample PRO 100, even subtle defects or distinctions are easier to spot—making it easier to identify exceptional lots.
Choose between 2, 3, or 4 independently controlled roasting chambers—ideal for simultaneous sample roasting without waiting between batches.
Each chamber has its own burner and airflow control, allowing different coffees to be roasted under different conditions at the same time.
Standardized batch size matches global cupping protocols and provides enough coffee for group tastings or lab evaluation.
Every chamber features a sight glass and sample spoon so you can monitor roast progression without stopping the machine.
Cooling trays for each chamber ensure beans are brought to room temperature immediately, preserving flavor and roast profile.
Compatible with roast logging software like Artisan and Cropster for profile saving, repeatability, and quality control tracking.
Showcase your beans to international buyers with in-house roasting that highlights the best of your crop. Roasting on-demand boosts confidence and increases deal flow.
Evaluate dozens of samples daily. Compare regions, producers, and processing methods—all in a compact machine.
Fine-tune profiles before running full batches. Sample roasting helps you understand how green beans respond to heat, timing, and airflow.
Use it as a hands-on teaching tool. Trainees can learn roast curves, development stages, and cupping evaluation with real samples.
