Probat

• Large-scale commercial coffee roasting operations requiring high throughput.
• Industrial food processing facilities producing roasted nuts or other dry goods.
• Speciality coffee businesses expanding their production capabilities.
• Contract roasting services for multiple coffee brands.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, a Probat Neptune 500 typically offers a batch capacity of approximately 500 kg of green coffee.

Throughput

Units of this type are commonly capable of processing several tonnes of coffee per hour, depending on roast profile and batch cycling.

Power supply

Industrial roasting lines commonly require a robust three-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with significant power draw for heating elements and motors.

Fuel type

Probat Neptune roasters commonly utilise natural gas or LPG for the roasting process, with specific burner configurations.

Footprint

A complete roasting line, including green coffee handling, roasting, and control systems, will require a substantial industrial space, typically several hundred square metres.

Automation level

Modern Probat lines, such as the Neptune 500, commonly feature advanced PLC-based control systems for automated roasting profiles and process management.

• What is included in a 'complete roasting line'?

  A complete line typically encompasses green coffee intake and storage, precise weighing, the roaster itself, afterburners for emissions control, cooling systems, and integrated control software for managing the entire process.

• What are the benefits of a Probat Neptune 500?

• Does 'never unpacked' mean it's effectively new?

• What kind of installation is required for a line of this size?

• Are spare parts readily available for Probat equipment?

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.
