Sample Roasting & Thermodynamic Heat Profiling
Sample roasting is part of the controlled preparation system used for sensory evaluation. The currently locked evidence supports sample-roast preparation and timing controls. Instrument-specific Agtron or Colortrack classification claims remain outside the publishable scope until directly traceable authority is registered.
Sample Roasting as Controlled Preparation
SCA Standard 102-2024 governs sample preparation including roasting specifications, grinding, dosing, water and tasting mechanics. Standardization limits preparation-related variation during sensory evaluation.
Roast Timing and Resting
The registered sample-preparation model records an 8–12 minute sample-roast duration and an 8–24 hour resting window before cupping. These are sample-preparation parameters, not universal production-roasting recipes.
Instrument-Specific Color Claims Remain Evidence-Gated
The current citation lock did not establish a directly traceable authoritative source for Agtron/Colortrack-specific classification claims. They are therefore not part of the publishable authority scope yet.
| Preparation Parameter | Current Supported Range | Unit | Authority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sample Roast Duration | 8 to 12 | Minutes | SCA sample-preparation authority |
| Rest Before Cupping | 8 to 24 | Hours | SCA sample-preparation authority |
Why does this page not specify Agtron or Colortrack targets?
The current authority lock supports sample-roast preparation controls but not a directly traceable instrument-specific source. Those claims remain evidence-gated.
