In the past coffee market, most cafes did not publicize the awareness of coffee culture. In addition to milk coffee products, other coffee products were rarely asked for, and there was not much trace of fine coffee.

In order to meet market demand, more and more cafes began to choose to buy coffee green beans, and then roast their own ripe beans, making "home roasting" popular, all of which cannot be separated from a key equipment-coffee roaster.

Coffee beans after a long time after high temperature roasting, to remove moisture, through the Mena reaction, caramelization reaction, and finally produce burst, into coffee beans, this process we call coffee roasting.
