HiBean v1.5.4: Nano 7 Roasting, Curve Editing, and Community Discovery
HiBean 1.5.4 brings a complete Nano 7 workflow, from connecting and preparing a profile to recording and reviewing a roast. Updated curve editors, profile discovery, and community rankings help you find a starting point, refine your curves, and learn from each batch.
Highlights
- Nano 7 roasting workflow: Connect, send profiles, record live curves, and manage profiles and logs stored on the roaster.
- Professional curve editing: Dedicated tools for general profiles and Nano 7 profiles, with precise adjustments, undo, and redo.
- Discover and reuse profiles: Switch between My Profiles and Discover Profiles, inspect curves and settings, then import a profile to use.
- Community and green bean discovery: Explore active roasters, popular posts, and the beans roasted most often by the community.
1. Nano 7: From Connection to Roast Review
- Connect over USB or Wi-Fi on desktop, or Wi-Fi on mobile. Bluetooth is also available with the HiBean Nano 7 module.
- Preview profiles and curves, send a profile, and follow transfer progress in a dedicated preparation flow. Once the transfer finishes, follow the prompt to press Start on the roaster.
- View actual temperature, RoR, target temperature, target RoR, and the planned fan curve during roasting, with first-crack synchronization.
- Import
.kproprofiles and.kloglogs while preserving native profile and log data. - Browse profiles and roast history on the roaster, preview files before importing, import or delete files in batches, and add local profiles to the roaster.
- Adjust a profile from an actual roast, comparing temperature, fan, power, and temperature differences from the original profile, then save it as a new profile.
- Switch the Nano 7 screen between Chinese and English from the app.
- Improved recovery when connecting during a roast, reconnecting after a disconnect, detecting the end of a roast, and retrieving the final log.
Kaffelogic Nano 7 USB / official Wi-Fi connections and the HiBean Nano 7 module have their own device entries. Importing files from the roaster copies the files you select into your local library.
2. Curve Editing: Clearer Control, Precise Adjustments
- Edit temperature, heater, airflow, and drum curves in general profiles, including inserting, deleting, and adjusting control points.
- Use the dedicated Nano 7 editor for native temperature and fan curves, stages, Level, Zones, and device control settings.
- Enter exact control-point times and values, smooth curves, zoom, pan, undo, and redo.
- Adjust the recommended Level with a slider and preview the estimated end temperature, with precise input also available.
- Find settings organized by roast progress, with explanations of their purpose, when to use them, and how to adjust them.
- Before saving, distinguish issues that must be fixed from advisory checks, with actual values, reasons, and suggested actions.
- Inspect a profile on its own detail page before opening the full-screen editor. Nano 7 profiles can be favorited, shared, copied, and deleted.
- Improved workspace layout and readings on phones, tablets, and desktops, with object and layer browsing and remembered layer visibility.
3. Find a Profile for Your Next Roast
- Switch between My Profiles and Discover Profiles when choosing a profile for the current roast.
- Explore a curated Nano 7 catalog, search and filter profiles, inspect curves and settings, then save a profile to your library to use.
- Search by profile name, bean, or origin, and use the source, brewing method, processing method, batch size, and other filters available for your roaster.
- Turn an existing roast log into a new profile to edit and save.
- Keep reusable native profile data when sharing a Nano 7 roast log, so the profile can be edited and used again.
The catalog includes profiles from different sources. Use them as starting points and adjust for your equipment, beans, and roast results.
4. Community and Green Beans: More Ways to Explore
- Roaster rankings: Explore active roasters and their posts for the week, month, or past three months.
- Popular posts: Discover roast logs receiving more views, likes, copies, and shares.
- Green bean rankings: Browse beans by roast-log count, with period rankings and an all-time list.
- Explore the online green bean library through Most Roasted by the Community and Browse by Merchant, with clearer merchant, origin, processing, and flavor information.
- Open bean details, related public roast curves, and the online library from the bean rankings.
- Updated post cards, details, user profiles, filters, and sharing pages. Find messages and unread indicators together under Mine.
Green bean rankings reflect the number of community roast logs and provide a reference for exploration. Related curves only include public records.
5. Device Compatibility and Roasting Control
- Improved guided setup and verification for custom TC4 protocol devices, with temperature readings, device controls, and manual parameter recording matched to the configured capabilities.
- Send the final heater or fan value after continuous dragging to reduce repeated commands, and adjust small control ranges one step at a time.
- Added a dedicated H7S Lite entry, consistent H7S model names, and device images for Ghibli and Silon.
- Corrected swapped bean and environmental temperature readings on some Dongyi BR, BY, and DY devices.
- Fixed heater, damper, and drum recording controls that were visible but could not be submitted on some HB devices.
- Fixed firmware update failures affecting HiBean / Skywalker Bluetooth modules on some iPhones.
- Export TC4 templates through the phone's system share menu, with cancellation, failure, and success reported correctly.
- Added automation triggers for temperature rise after a selected roast event and for development time ratio.
6. Roast Records, Data Exchange, and Labels
- Preserve single-bean or multiple-bean associations in roast logs, and view related logs and profiles from bean details.
- Recognize named special control events when importing Artisan logs, preserving corresponding heater, airflow, and drum changes.
- Preserve edited log notes and native Nano 7 profile data when sharing.
- Added a QR-only label mode that hides text and enlarges and centers the QR code for small green bean and roast-log labels.
- Improved retries after saving fails, plus final-log verification and recovery for Nano 7.
7. Everyday Use and Support
- Updated typography, cards, filters, and navigation across roast preparation, device setup, profile discovery, records, community, and Mine.
- Improved device scanning, connection, module preparation, and retries after failures.
- Search selection pages for beans, origins, profiles, and roast logs, and select items with the arrow keys and Enter.
- Improved chart rendering during long roasts to reduce the risk of stuttering as recording continues.
- Upload diagnostic logs in one action and receive a log ID to copy or share. If the upload fails or exceeds the file limit, you can still save and share the ZIP.
