Artisan is a free, open-source coffee roasting application designed to record, analyze, and control roasting profiles. It provides real-time visualization of temperature measurements, roasting events, and rate-of-rise curves. The software connects to compatible roasting machines, thermocouples, data loggers, and temperature controllers. Users can monitor roast development, compare profiles, and record important stages such as first crack and drop time. Its analysis tools help evaluate roasting consistency, energy application, and temperature progression. Artisan also supports automation through compatible PID controllers and customizable roasting configurations. Available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Raspberry Pi, it helps home enthusiasts and commercial coffee roasters improve consistency, document production, and refine roasting techniques.
