Probat

• Commercial coffee roasting operations requiring batch processing.
• Speciality coffee producers looking to control roast profiles.
• Medium-scale food processing plants for nut or grain roasting.
• Research and development facilities for product testing and formulation.

Typical capacity

This unit is specified as a 90 kg roaster, indicating a batch capacity of 90 kilograms of green coffee.

Power supply

Probat roasters of this size commonly require a three-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with specific amperage varying by model and heating type (gas or electric).

Heating method

Probat roasters for this class of equipment typically utilise gas (natural gas or LPG) for the roasting process, though electric heating options may exist on some models.

Ancillary equipment

Units of this type often include or are offered with essential peripherals such as a green coffee loader/elevator, destoner, and a husk collector (cyclone).

Footprint
