The Wile 200 Precision Moisture Meter for Robusta & Arabica coffee plus Cocoa Beans is the latest coffee moisture meter from Farmcomp, Finland. It combines high frequency capacitive bean moisture (%), bulk density (kg/hl) and temperature (C/F) measurements for added accuracy. Some unboxing and first use pictures: The box The case case opened Batteries and USB cable included Battery compartment at the bottom Starting up, selecting English and Green Coffee Following on screen instructions Hopper filled, then pulling the slider to fill the measuring chamber The top will be levelled On screen instruction to move levelling brush over the beans and back Levelling brush Results of measurement Data of moisture and density entered in cloud app of ARTISAN 2.0 PLUS After a roast, wirelessly importing the resulting weight of beans fro
