WHY YOU NEED A MOISTURE AND DENSITY ANALYZER

A moisture analyzer saves you money when you learn water moisture is higher than you thought. The density analyzer reflects the hardness of coffee beans. For the roaster, this means you need to know the shrinkage % of the beans before the roast. It helps you to determine the storage environment of the beans by checking the moisture level of roasted and green beans. Moisture level influences cupping quality.
