Heat Spikes During Roasting? Here’s How to Master the Curve
⏱ 1 min read The Short Version Heat spikes during roasting are intentional, signaling key stages in bean development, not flaws—mastering them requires precision, not force. Roasters adjust curves and airflow to control spikes, reading them as milestones, not chaos. In This Article Understanding the Science of Heat SpikesAdjusting for Control, Not Chaos Heat spikes during roasting are not random fluctuations—they are critical indicators of the roast’s progression. For newcomers, the abrupt temperature rise after the first crack may seem erratic, but it is an essential phase in the roast curve. The Giesen and Artisan roasters are engineered for precision,…
