  • Machines: Various (see below)
  • Connection: Phidgets / MODBUS RTU via USB

Watch out! Mill City Roasters has never supported the Artisan project like many of the manufacturers here. For that reason, we are unable to offer support for your specific roaster, especially if it differs from the included one-click machine setups. Please contact Mill City Roasters for support if you encounter setup issues.

Supported Machines

Watch out! For some machines there are two setups. One for machines configured to report temperature data on their controls in Celsius (marked with C) and one for those reporting it in Fahrenheit (marked with F).
