Coffee aroma assessment is commonly performed through cupping tests, which are subjective and highly dependent on human perception. This study proposes an objective approach for multi-class coffee aroma classification using a low-cost Electronic Nose (E-Nose) and a comparative evaluation of Deep Neural Network (DNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). Aroma data were acquired from an ESP32-based sensor array consisting of MQ-9, MQ-135, and DHT22, resulting in 1,503 samples from 10 Arabica and Robusta coffee classes. Two preprocessing scenarios were evaluated: (1) raw data + Interquartile Range (IQR) + Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) + Min–Max scaling, and (2) raw data + Min–Max scaling. The models were evaluated using an 80:20 train–test split and 5-fold cross-validation on the training set. The results show that DNN achieved the best performance in both scenarios, reaching 91.45% accuracy in the first scenario and 80.07% in the second. SVM also improved substantially from 61.46% to 81.78% after applying IQR and DWT. In contrast, ANN performed better in the second scenario, achieving 73.72% accuracy compared to 61.43% in the first. These findings indicate that preprocessing effectiveness depends on the classification model, while DNN remains the most robust and consistent model for multi-class coffee aroma classification based on E-Nose tabular data.
