more sensors at Zroaster. That really make roasting better?

BT, ET and inlet temps are standard. But now there's more drums, exhaust, MET, until someone puts up the motion sensors.

My question: all of this data really works this time-roast? Or is it mostly noise that makes roastmaster overwhelmed?

Ever tried compare Zroast of a bunch of sensors vs that are just BT / ET standard? It's not consistent?

i used to compare. The drum skin sensor is the same BT often has a predictable correlation, Not a lot of incremental value except for the trouble shoot.

the motion sensor incan correlate the same development rate more accurately than pure temperature alone. But stable and affordable are still rare.

from SCA research on heat transfers, the heat distribution has a minimum of three-dimensional variable: seed surface, seed core, air in drums. One BT sensor is a very rough proxy. In principle, the problem of implementation and calligraphy is often inconsistent between machines.

i'm more concrete: If roasting keeps looking at reality-time screens, it's the same thing.

that's right. I have a friend who buys the most expensive machine with eight sensors, but he's roasting by feel and basically ignore all the charts. The results are no better than a simple setup.

has anyone ever tested their own sensory accuracy? add thermocouple external then compare with readout machine? i want to know how drift sensor factory after 1-2 years of use.

i checked. My BT sensor drives almost 4 degrees after 2 years. It didn't wake up right away because it felt like it was still there.

it's a classic problem I'm worried about too. It's supposed to be SOP calibration, but rarely does anyone really do. Four degrees is armican, could slide first crack timing a few minutes.
