01 — Overview
Your Roaster. Your Software.
Your Results.

Roast Master is powerful, easy-to-use roasting software built for precision and consistency. It gives you total control — allowing you to manually create and save custom roast profiles, adjusting gas, airflow, and drum speed in real time. Profile Automation replays gas, airflow, and temperature targets at every interval, batch after batch, for data-driven, repeatable roasts.

Every View. Every Control.

Switch between Data View, Graph View, and Combined View at any point mid-roast. The Profile Builder lets you build and refine profiles offline. Settings put complete connection and control in your hands.

Everything Built In.
One Price, Every Feature.

Adjust gas, airflow, and drum speed in real time during any roast. Profile Automation handles gas, airflow, and temperature targets at every interval — data-driven, repeatable results, batch after batch.

Roast Profile Automation
Roast Profile Automation
Create, save, and automate custom roast profiles. Set gas %, airflow, and temperature targets at every interval — then let Roast Master execute the profile. Drum speed stays under your direct control throughout the roast.
Drum & Fan Speed Control
Drum & Fan Speed Control
Take full command with intuitive drum speed and airflow controls built directly into Roast Master. Airflow can be automated as part of your profile. Drum speed stays in your hands for live control throughout the roast.
Custom Timer Intervals
Custom Timer Intervals
Set your timer interval in seconds and Roast Master records and executes profile commands at each precise interval throughout the entire roast.
Rate of Rise Tracking
Rate of Rise Tracking
Monitor your bean temperature Rate of Rise in real time. RoR is graphed continuously so you can see momentum, anticipate first crack, and prevent scorching.
Roast Development %
Roast Development %
Calculate and track development percentage live during every roast. Set your target window and Roast Master monitors it automatically.
Data Logging
Data Logging
Every roast is automatically logged with timestamped temperature, gas %, fan speed, and RoR data. Export as CSV for records or sharing profiles.
Manual Profile Creation
Manual Profile Creation
Build profiles from scratch in the Profile Builder. Set starting temp, finish temp, roast time, and fill in each interval — then save and reuse.
Manual Override
Manual Override
Override any automated setting mid-roast without stopping the profile. Take manual control of gas or airflow at any moment, then return them to automation. Drum speed is always under your control.
Dynamic Build Mode
Dynamic Build Mode
Use Dynamic Build to evolve your profiles roast-by-roast. Apply actual temperature and gas data from each roast back into the profile to refine results.
Roast Log History
Roast Log History
Access your complete roast history. Compare actual vs. target data across batches, identify trends, and use past performance to improve every future roast.
04 — Primo vs. Third-Party Software

Competitors' machines require other third party software — at $1,200–$3,600 per year. Roast Master ships with every 2024 Primo machine and newer, year 1 included, and just $250/year after — a fraction of the alternatives.
