Whether you're roasting single origins, or pre or post blending, Roastmaster will calculate the required green and roasts to fill your orders. • Calculate the weights of a blend's individual bean components based on an overall yield weight. • Key commands in the Roast Analyzer make roasting easier when paired or docked to a keyboard. Hold the command key down to see a list of available commands. • The new Roastmaster Datagram Protocol (RDP) allows the Data Logging option to communicate with thermocouples on ANY hardware equipped with a microprocessor. Download OpenSource software, or write your own to build an inexpensive custom probe host on any type of hardware–Macs, PCs, Arduino, Raspberry PIs, and many others. • The new Analyzer Roast HUD view provides a large, informative display to let you monitor temperatures from a distance and track changing roast metrics. Expand, condense, or drag it around the screen–it's your flexible assistant, showing you important milestones of the current roast as they change. • Improved item naming and display • Delta curve smoothing • Enhanced Analyzer targeting mode • New pyrolysis event type enables you to track development more precisely, regardless of crack time, and link it directly to bean temperature. • App-wide sorting of child items, e.g. curves, roasted/blended/cupped items, etc. • Each measurement field remembers the last measurement scale you used when entering data. • Print labels from multiple items in one step, and specify multiple copies. • A new cupping timer helps you keep cupping sessions on track. • Informative prompt system and icon badging alert you to low inventory, roaster cleaning and other warnings. • Informative deletion warning view provides information about which items will be left with missing data, and whether or not the delete action will cascade to other items. • Temperature-based report metrics. • Time-based event triggers. • Enter notes about individual samples when performing a flight-style cupping. • Export any entity as an XML file, for use in a 3rd party backend system, or spreadsheet software. • Export Roastmaster Exchange, PNGs, XLM, TXT and more directly to iCloud Drive, Slack, Dropbox, or any other URL-type app on your device.

• Spanish, French, Simplified Chinese and Korean Languages. • 64-bit native on compatible devices. • Roast and Curve Events: Add time-stamped markers to any roast or curve to signify a point of interest. Or, define a custom temperature trigger in a curve event, and Roastmaster will alert you when it’s been reached, annotating the curve to match. • Advanced Reporting Capabilities: View and compare detailed information about virtually any detail of your library, as well as many new calculated metrics. See side-by-side metric comparisons, groupings and tallies, or view this information in interactive line and bar charts with overlaid cupping information. • Smarter, Faster and Easier Numerical Data Entry: All of Roastmaster’s numerical data entry screens have been redesigned with better layout, form-based navigation, and custom keyboard and measurement units pickers, allowing for faster and easier data entry. • Easier Node Entry: Redesigned curve entry panel with selectable text and custom decimal keyboard make entering node data a breeze. • Bean Lot Tracking: Track and audit information about individual beans lots, such as lot number, cost, moisture, density, Q Score, screen size and more. Roastmaster creates bean lots automatically as you received inventory, providing an audit trail for changing attributes. • Inventory Warning Threshold for Beans: Roastmaster will alert you when that bean’s stock needs to be replenished. • Full Control of Auxiliary Entities: Caffeine, processing, market, size, growing, density and roaster temperature types can be created, deleted and edited at will. • Custom Roast Names: Easily distinguish among roasts by entering custom names. • Roast Yield Prediction: See what the expected yield is for any roast and roast style, based on recent roasts in your library. • Estimated Green Weight from Yields: Use past yield information to predict the required green weight based on recent roasts in your library. • Expanded Roast Attributes: Pre and post moisture, density and weight values, along with many calculated metrics via Curve Events, such as turnaround, drying and ramp times. • Expanded Cupping Protocols: Choose from a number of different protocols aimed at tracking roast efficiency and/or green attributes, or choose the manual style to enter a quick score. • Interactive Cupping Spider Graphs: Edit attribute scores graphically by tapping and dragging on the spider graph itself, or via an enhanced numeric keypad. • Cupping Flights: Select multiple roasts to create a batch of cuppings, then perform a flight cupping in-line with spider graphs. • Expanded Cupping Attributes: See the brew ratio of your cuppings, and store many new attributes, like water temperature, TDS, grind settings, and extraction time. • Manual Roast Sorting: Roastmaster now provides the ability to reorder roasts by dragging, making it easy to define the order in which a day’s roasts should be performed. • Default Roaster. Set any roaster as the default and it will be automatically tagged in new roasts. • Analyzer Graph Shift: Drag the Y axis downward to quickly pull taller reading curves into view. • In-Line Calculator: Access a custom calculator complete with “paper tape” style readout anywhere numeric values are entered. Perform any computation, and apply the results. • Create nodes without typing by dragging curve labels in the analyzer. • Roastmaster will now prevent iOS from sleeping when in the analyzer or console with a bound data logging probe, allowing you to monitor the roaster as it warms up. • Non-metric volume and density measurements now translate correctly between US common units and UK Imperial units, and can be entered in either system. • Analyzer composite notes now shows the roasted weight and roaster. • Agtron fields now allow decimals • Fixes a bug that would result in a crash when adding a bean when the bean sort mode is set to region.

Roast Analyzer
• The analyzer has been rewritten from the ground up, proving an interface that is lightning fast, as well as more informative and intuitive. • Delta curves allow you to compare the rate of rise of reading curves overlaid on the actual curve data. • Consolidated notes enable you to view notes of all items of interest in your roast in one place, and edit any of them without ever leaving the analyzer. • Custom control over how curves plot. Two-finger tap to choose among primary (solid), target (dotted) or off (hidden). • Easier curve selection by tapping directly on curves, any of their labels or by two-finger tapping to choose from a list.
• Unobtrusive, color-coded queued banner alerts. Alerts can be left on screen or dismissed individually. • Tap on the cupping icon to see a list of individual cupping dates, scores and notes for each cupping being reported. Tap the header of any item in this list to edit those notes right in the analyzer. • New targeting button (iPad) allows you to easily switch targeting modes without opening the controls dock. • High-contrast white color scheme. Roast Console • The green bean ingredients list in roasts now includes the total cost of the roasted items. Data Logging Option • Support for the Range probes from Supermechanical. • Redesigned analyzer crosshairs give a better view of underlying data, and provide delta pointers to show the current rise.
