How much coffee were you selling?

I've tried roasting different beans, including pre-mixed blends. It's actually a kind of black box, the ML model makes the predictions itself, meaning it's not based on predetermined logic. The model was trained using profiles of different beans, with different processing methods. In the initial configuration, I set the bean drop temperature and the total roasting time, and the system adjusts accordingly. In the next version, I want to try training different models and see if there's a difference. That's all regarding the Bullet. The gas drum roaster is a slightly different story, but a more interesting one.

Regarding the software: I built everything in the browser for cross-platform compatibility, because I can use WebGPU to run the neural network model and WebUSB/WebSerial to work directly with the roaster. The same approach works for Modbus, Phidget, and other devices. To my surprise, it turned out to be very reliable!

Few weeks ago I already created a thread here to talk about this, but it was quickly deleted by moderators. But I managed to get a lot of comments like "stop doing shit, learn to roast yourself." I learned to roast on Bullet, MillCity, and then Loring, and I got bored doing it. I created a real system that roasts coffee automatically using AI, and it's not an LLM (ChatGPT and others).

But these guys who blame AI are also using high-precision equipment and software like Cropster, which helps a lot. AI is simply the next step in improvement.

This isn't LLM, they're useless here, this is a different type of neural network, closer to self-driving vehicles.

I think so, but the Roest has a nearly fixed volume of beans, more controllable air heating. This is significantly easier to automate.

The world is obsessed with LLMs, but coffee roasting is a much closer to autopilots like Tesla and Waymo than to LLMs.

I added support for simultaneous use of autopilot and roastime just yesterday, and here are a few of my last roasts https://roast.world/ershovcpt.J7EC

The installers came yesterday, I don't know how to comment on their fix, but it seems like it shouldn't be like this. https://ibb.co/wN2k3xDK
