Product Description
The E20-CP is an abridged spectrophotometer designed specifically to address the special requirements associated with evaluating and quantifying the roast of whole bean and ground coffee.
Unlike general "color" instruments, the E20-CP operates in the near-infrared energy band where the highest spectral reflectance activity occurs as a function of degree of roast.
Operation
The resolution and accuracy of these coffee roast analyzers provides previously unobtainable quantification of the roasting process. With this type of high resolution information, it is now possible to re-define roasting process parameters, greatly improve product consistency, quality and yield.
Calibration Flexibility
The E20CP can be calibrated to either of two Agtron industry standard scales: The Commercial Scale or the Gourmet Scale. It is easy to move from one scale to the other. In addition, either scale can be expanded or compressed using an operator defined factor invoked by a special function key.
New Features
The many improvements to the E20-CP include solid state lamps, fully automated calibration, data storage capability, and a dual microprocessor design.

Many major food companies are finding that Agtron instrumentation is invaluable in controlling the quality and consistency of their products. These bench top units are the most accurate, repeatable, and easy to use process analyzers available.
The development of food flavor and appearance are directly related to the degree of process, and as such, quantitative measurement becomes imperative in controlling both the absolute and customer perceived quality. The Agtron Abridged Spectrophotometers are designed specifically for high resolution analysis of the degree of roast, bake or fry, of fruit maturity, and of color/appearance variations of a variety of food products.
The M-Series Spectrophotomer
Agtron bench top units are the most accurate, repeatable, and easy to use process analyzers available.
Agtron instruments perform product analysis by using very specific wavelengths of light to illuminate the sample surface and measure the reflected energy. The results of analysis are displayed as a single "Agtron" number. Many products require little or no sample preparation before being tested, making it easy for multiple users to achieve consistent results.
Agtron has experience with many types of food products. If, however, your product is unique to us, we offer a Free Laboratory Testing Program. Our staff of application specialists will perform a comprehensive sample evaluation.
