Christopher Feran is a roasting consultant and green coffee buyer, based in Cleveland, Ohio, where he is busy establishing a new roastery called Aviary. He was one of the first to embrace the new profile type, and the BT/IT profiles that he has created have rapidly spread throughout the ROEST community.

In his video, Christopher explains why he prefers roasting with BT/IT profiles, and shares his tips to help new users get the most out of these profiles.

The BT/IT profile enables your ROEST to automatically adjust the heat input based not on the roast time, but instead based on how far the beans have progressed in their roast.

This is similar to how an expert roaster traditionally controls the profile — by watching the bean temperature closely, and turning down the heat as the beans get closer and closer to the target temperature.
