400;\">We designed the Bellwether Roaster to be the most sustainable coffee roaster in the world, both in air quality and energy use, to enable businesses that roast coffee to minimize their environmental impact. We took the same principles and processes discovered on traditional coffee roasting equipment, then applied it to modern technology to create a new kind of roasting experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Bellwether Roaster is the most consistent and controllable roaster on the market with the lowest carbon footprint. It\u2019s the first-and-only commercial coffee roaster to remove particulates and VOCs through clean technology for zero-emission roasting. By using electricity instead of natural gas to roast, it reduces the carbon footprint of coffee roasting by an average of 90%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traditional coffee roasting typically requires a great deal of space, expensive ventilation systems, gas line installation, and years of experience in the industry to both source green coffee and create roast profiles that highlight coffee\u2019s intricate taste. The Bellwether Roaster is the only roaster that operates without gas lines, venting, construction, or permitting which means you can be up and roasting from the moment it arrives.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><div id=\"eckb-article-content-footer\"><div class=\"eckb-article-content-footer__article-meta\"><\/div>\r\n\t\t<section id=\"eprf-article-buttons-container\" class=\"eprf-rating-mode-five-stars eprf-afc--reset\">\t\t\t\r\n\t\t<div class=\"eprf-stars-module eprf-stars-module--layout-1 \">\r\n\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"eprf-stars-module__text\"  style=\"color: #000000;
