Page 2: Product Description
Product description The Specialty Coffee Association (SCA), a body merged from European Specialty Coffee Association (SCAE) and American Specialty Coffee Association (SCAA), promotes using infrared analysis to assess the degree of coffee roast. The method used is called an Agtron number. A lower Agtron number indicates a higher caramelization and a deeper roasting degree. - Page 3 Agtron numbers are defined as two scale expressions designed to meet the specific needs of different types of coffee roast. Agtron Commercial Scale: This was originally defined as a roast scale, developed primarily for large commercial plants, corresponding to the carbide ratio of soluble organic matter, in order to evaluate soluble coffee in the form of dehydration.
