Optical sorter ROI for medium-size mill: worth it yet?

satu bulan yang lalu
Recently I have been discussing optical sorter ROI for a medium-size mill with several coffee people and nobody gives the same answer. Some treat it as small detail, some say it changes the whole workflow. I am not looking for textbook reply. I want to know whether optical sorter ROI for a medium-size mill gives meaningful difference once you repeat it over many cycles.

Would you keep optical sorter ROI for a medium-size mill in your normal process, or only for specific coffees and situations?

i see optical sorter ROI for a medium-size mill work in some place, but usually only when the notes are clear and people really compare batch by batch. if not, discussion become only feeling.

I think the bigger issue is not optical sorter ROI for a medium-size mill itself but whether your baseline is stable. If baseline keeps moving, then every experiment around it gives mixed signal.

From my side this helped only on certain coffees, not on every lot. When the coffee is already forgiving, optical sorter ROI for a medium-size mill does not change much. On difficult lots the effect is clearer.

I disagree a little with people who say optical sorter ROI for a medium-size mill is only a small detail. Small detail alone maybe yes, but several small details together can move the cup a lot.
