The Future of Roasting
The Stronghold S8X is a smart electric roaster built for professionals who demand total control. By managing all three heat transfer methods independently, it offers unmatched flexibility, ensuring that every small-batch roast expresses its full flavor potential.
Revolutionary Triple Heat Management
The S8X features Stronghold’s patented technology, allowing you to shape the cup profile with surgical precision. The Triple Heat System gives you independent command over how energy is applied to the bean:
- Radiant Heat: Halogen lamps provide deep, penetrating heat for uniform internal and external development.
- Convective Heat: Circulating hot air distributes heat evenly across all beans for stable results.
- Conductive Heat: New drum heater technology enables independent control of energy transfer directly through the drum.
