Avercasso has introduced the CS Lite, a compact version of its AI-driven coffee sorting machine, the CS One. This new model is designed for home roasters and small commercial operations, making it easier to sort green coffee beans with defects efficiently. The CS Lite retains much of the advanced technology of its predecessor but is tailored for smaller-scale production.
• The CS Lite can scan up to 2.5 kilograms of green coffee per hour, which is slower than the CS One.
• It features dual 4K cameras and AI modules for sorting various coffee processes.
• The machine has a 2.5-kilo-capacity hopper but lacks the expandable feature of the CS One.
• Users must subscribe for additional AI modules, costing $500 per year, unlike the one-time purchase for the CS One.
This innovation is significant as it provides smaller roasters with access to advanced sorting technology, improving quality control and efficiency. The CS Lite represents a step towards making high-tech coffee processing accessible to a broader audience.
