Thank you for your quick reply. Adding the mask_and_scale=False kwarg solves the issue of conversion to float, but the resulting is of dtype int8 instead of uint8. Is there any way of making open_dataset() directly interpret the values as unsigned?

It would save me quite a lot of processing time since using DataArray.astype(np.uint8) takes a while to run.
