PA - Wampa 15 Kg

• Small to medium-scale coffee roasting operations.
• Speciality coffee shops looking to roast their own beans.
• Pilot plants for coffee product development.
• Artisan food producers expanding into coffee.
• Cafes aiming for direct control over coffee freshness and flavour profiles.

Typical capacity

This unit is specified at 15 kg per batch, which is common for small commercial roasters.

Power supply

For this class of equipment, a 3-phase electrical supply (e.g., 400V/50Hz) is typically required for heating elements and motors, though smaller auxiliary components may use single-phase.

Heating method

Coffee roasters of this size commonly utilise gas (natural gas or LPG) for the primary heat source, often supplemented by electric elements for precise temperature control.

Cooling system

An integrated cooling tray with an agitator and fan is standard to rapidly cool roasted beans and prevent over-roasting.

Dimensions

Footprint for a 15 kg roaster typically requires a dedicated space, often around 1.5m x 1m, plus clearance for maintenance and ventilation.

Chaff collection

An external or integrated chaff collector is essential for safety and cleanliness, removing the husks separated during the roasting process.

Control system

Units of this type commonly feature manual and/or semi-automatic controls for drum speed, airflow, and temperature, with digital readouts for monitoring.

• What kind of ventilation is needed for a coffee roaster?

  Adequate ventilation is crucial. Roasters require an exhaust system to remove smoke, fumes, and odours generated during the roasting process, typically vented to the outside.

• What maintenance is typically required for a used coffee roaster?

• Can this type of roaster handle different bean types?

• What are the typical installation requirements?

• Is training usually needed to operate a commercial coffee roaster?

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.
