Dial in by Dev % & Dev Lock
- Sean Ellis
A new feature added into the Kaffelogic is the ability to dial in your roasts by your development as well as automatically adjusting your end point to ensure you reach your target development percentage.
What is Dial in by Dev %?
Dial in by Dev % is a new feature that changes the display to focus on your target development rather than levels, and allows you to adjust and dial in your roast development in 0.1% increments. This is a change from the normal level adjustment to corresponding development percentage. This feature is for those that prefer to have finer control over their roasts as well as wanting to move away from the level system.
How to activate/deactivate it:
Update your roaster to the latest firmware, and studio to the latest software.
From the home screen on your roaster, press the Menu button (5th button) until you see ‘Preferences’ and press start.
Using the Menu button, cycle through the options until you see 'Dial in by Dev%' and press + to activate it (- to deactivate it).
Press the Profile button (4th button) to return to the home screen.
What is Dev Lock?
Dev Lock is a new feature that automatically lengthens or shortens your roast in order to achieve your desired development percentage. This feature activates during a roast once you mark first crack when you press the Menu button, followed by the Start button, or when you click on the FC button in Studio in the top right corner. From marking first crack the roast will progress to your target development percentage, once reached it will automatically go into cooling.
