• Small to medium-scale coffee roasting operations.
• Speciality coffee shops and micro-roasteries.
• Pilot plants for coffee product development.
• Businesses requiring in-house control over coffee bean quality and roast profiles.

Typical capacity

This specific unit is rated at 15kg per batch. For this class of equipment, capacities commonly range from 5kg to 30kg per batch.

Power supply

Roasters of this size typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with varying amperage depending on heating elements and motor power.

Heating method

Units in this category commonly utilise gas (LPG or natural gas) for the roasting drum, with electrical components for motors and controls.

Cooling

An integrated cooling tray is standard for rapid bean cooling post-roast, crucial for stopping the roasting process effectively.

Ancillary equipment

A complete line like this typically includes a green bean loader, cyclone for chaff collection, destoner, and an afterburner for emissions control.

Footprint

For a complete roasting line of this capacity, a floor space of approximately 2.3m x 3.6m is specified for this unit, which is typical for integrated systems.

Control system

Units commonly feature an electrical control panel for managing roasting parameters, fan speeds, and temperature.

Exhaust requirements

An exhaust flue system is essential for venting hot air and smoke; buyers should ensure their facility can accommodate the associated pipework.

• What maintenance is typically required for a coffee roaster of this type?

  Regular cleaning of the roasting drum, cooling tray, cyclone, and exhaust system is essential. Routine checks of burners, motors, and electrical connections are also typically required.

• Is an afterburner always necessary?

• Can this roaster handle different types of coffee beans?

• What are the typical installation considerations for a complete roasting line?

• How important is the destoner in a roasting line?

Used roasters are valued for their durability and cost effectiveness in food processing operations. Buyers typically prioritise even heat distribution, temperature control consistency, and robust construction when selecting secondhand units. Industry sentiment favours roasters from established manufacturers known for reliable performance. Key considerations include maintenance history, heating element condition, and capacity matching operational requirements. Well-maintained roasters often deliver dependable service across coffee roasting, nut processing, and other food applications, making them sound investments for processors seeking to minimise capital expenditure.
