Aillio Bullet R1 V2 Coffee Roaster

Revolutionary IBTS Technology

The Aillio Bullet R1 V2 addresses coffee roasting's most critical challenge: inaccurate bean temperature data. Traditional NTC probes measure contact points on bean surfaces, creating lag time, inconsistency across batch sizes, and unreliable readings that vary by probe placement. The Infrared Bean Temperature Sensor (IBTS) uses contactless infrared measurement to capture bean surface temperature across the entire bean mass in real-time, providing instant feedback unaffected by batch size (150g vs 1,000g) or probe positioning.

This revolutionary sensor enables consistent roast profile replication — a 500g batch roasted to City+ at 205°C IBTS delivers identical flavor development to a 1,000g batch at the same IBTS reading. Professional roasters rely on IBTS data for sample roasting nano lots, creating baseline profiles on the Bullet, then scaling production to larger commercial roasters with confidence. Both IBTS and traditional NTC probe data stream simultaneously to RoasTime software for comprehensive roast analysis.

RoasTime Software & Roast.World Platform

The Bullet R1 V2 includes RoasTime software (Mac, Windows, Linux compatible) providing real-time roast logging, profile saving, profile replay, and comprehensive data analysis. Connect via USB to monitor IBTS temperature, NTC probe temperature, power level, fan speed, drum speed, rate-of-rise (RoR), and elapsed time on intuitive dashboards. Save successful roast profiles with detailed notes on bean origin, processing method, density, and desired flavor outcomes.

Profile replay functionality enables one-button roast repetition — select a saved profile and the software automatically adjusts power and fan settings to match the original temperature curve. Share profiles with the global Bullet community via Roast.World online platform, downloading profiles from master roasters worldwide or contributing your own discoveries. Artisan software compatibility provides additional analysis tools for advanced roasters.

Technical Specifications

Back-to-Back Roasting Capability

The Bullet's efficient cooling system enables simultaneous roasting and cooling — start roasting the next batch while the previous batch cools in the external tray. Coffee deposits directly from the hot drum into the cooling tray in 3-4 minutes for 1 lb batches, maximizing productivity for small commercial operations or home roasters processing multiple origins. This back-to-back capability makes the Bullet competitive with commercial sample roasters costing 3-5× more.

⚠️ Important: Venting Requirements

The Aillio Bullet R1 V2 has no built-in smoke suppression. Roasting generates significant smoke, especially at full 1kg batch sizes during second crack. Proper venting is essential — the user manual includes detailed venting solutions including range hood installation, window exhaust fans, or dedicated ductwork. Indoor use without ventilation is not recommended.
