INTRODUCING THE KALEIDO M2 LITE
The Kaleido Sniper M2 Lite brings the M2 roasting platform to a more accessible price point, offering a capable 200g–500g electric coffee roaster designed for use with Artisan software.
Combining carbon-fibre infrared heating with circulating hot air, the M2 Lite gives home roasting enthusiasts and small-batch roasters precise control over the roasting process, without the need for a separate proprietary tablet.
With adjustable heating, airflow and drum speed, dual temperature monitoring and the ability to record and repeat roasting profiles, it's a compact machine with plenty of scope to develop your roasting skills.
The M2 Lite also features automatic chaff collection, rapid bean cooling and a stainless steel roasting drum, making it a practical option for regular small-batch roasting.
If you're looking to step up from a smaller home roaster, or want to start roasting your own coffee with greater control over the results, the M2 Lite is well worth considering.

FEATURES
Carbon-Fibre Infrared Heating
The M2 Lite uses a carbon-fibre infrared heating system, combined with circulating hot air to help distribute heat throughout the roasting chamber.
The design allows you to adjust heat input throughout the roast, giving you greater control over how your beans develop.
200g–500g Roasting Capacity
With a roasting capacity of 200g to 500g per batch, the M2 Lite offers a useful step up from smaller home roasting machines.
Whether you're experimenting with different origins, developing roast profiles or preparing coffee for regular home use, there's plenty of flexibility within its batch capacity.
Full Artisan Control
Adjust heating, airflow and drum speed directly through Artisan, while monitoring bean and environmental temperatures using the machine's dual probes.
You can record roasting curves, save successful profiles and use curve-copy roasting to help repeat previous results.
Automatic Chaff Collection
The integrated chaff collection system gathers the husks released during roasting, helping to keep your roasting setup cleaner and making maintenance more straightforward.
Rapid Bean Cooling
Once your roast is complete, the dedicated cooling system brings the beans down in temperature in approximately 2–3 minutes, helping to bring the roasting process to a controlled finish.
Compact Design
Despite its 500g maximum roasting capacity, the M2 Lite retains a relatively compact design, making it suitable for home roasting spaces and smaller roasting setups where space is limited.
