Julie Staloch - Shore_Model920_201504-6777_CoffeeThe Shore Model 920 Moisture Tester provides quick, accurate moisture results for a variety of coffee commodities. Utilizing the tester helps roasters choose the correct roasting profile, avoid shrink or quality issues and save roasting energy.

The Model 920 uses a pre-weighed sample and a reliable sample loading mechanism to ensure accurate, repeatable results. It uses proven measurement principles and a cell design that makes it one of the most consistently accurate and economical moisture testers on the market. All results are displayed directly without the need for moisture or temperature conversion tables.

Sample tests take between 5 to 35 seconds, depending on the sample temperature. The unit is able to test samples ranging in temperatures from 22- to 160-degrees Fahrenheit, and can read moisture levels between 6 and 40 percent.

Built for portability, the moisture tester weighs only 2.7 pounds, yet it features rugged, all-metal construction to handle the rigors of field use. The tester is available on its own, or as part of a portable testing package, complete with portable scale, dump cell and calibration weight all contained within a sturdy hard-sided carrying case.
