DiFluid OmniFlux | Live Coffee Roasting Color Tracker
DiFluid OmniFlux | Live Coffee Roasting Color Tracker
The DiFluid OmniFlux is a revolutionary real-time color analyzer that tracks bean development (Agtron) directly through the roaster’s viewing window, integrating with Artisan software for precise, color-driven quality control.
Description:
DiFluid OmniFlux: Live Coffee Roasting Color Tracker
The DiFluid OmniFlux introduces the biggest shift in coffee roasting since the invention of temperature control. For nearly 150 years, roasters have tracked development through temperature probes—monitoring a proxy rather than the bean itself. The OmniFlux changes the paradigm by analyzing the actual, physical color changes of the beans in real time. By generating a live color change curve and rate of development, it allows you to design and repeat profiles with unprecedented accuracy.
Advanced Onboard Infrastructure
Beyond real-time color tracking, the OmniFlux serves as an all-in-one control hub:
- Dual Probe Connectivity: Supports two external temperature probes, mapping standard bean and environment curves right alongside live color tracking.
- Built-In Infrared Thermometer: Tracks bean temperatures from 0–320°C to attach precise cooling curve data to every log for complete quality control.
- Integrated Laser Rangefinder: Utilizes a laser setup for perfect physical calibration against your roaster window, functioning also as a standalone range tool.
- AirWave Automation: Acts as the "brain" for the DiFluid AirWave filter unit, automatically adjusting smoke extraction intensity based on the live roasting stage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the OmniFlux be used with any coffee roaster?
Yes. It is engineered with robust calibration protocols that allow it to adapt to almost any roaster equipped with a standard viewing window, maintaining accuracy regardless of ambient room lighting or the thickness of the window glass.
How does it connect to profiling software like Artisan?
The OmniFlux integrates seamlessly with your existing workflow, connecting directly to Artisan. This lets you map out the live color curve and its corresponding rate-of-change metrics alongside your traditional temperature probe readouts.
Does it measure roasted samples after the batch is finished?
Yes, besides its primary feature of real-time tracking through the window during a roast, the OmniFlux also doubles as a standalone color meter for testing prepared grounds or whole bean samples post-roast.
