- Typical capacity
- For this model, the '10Kg' designation typically refers to the batch size, meaning 10 kilograms of green coffee per roast cycle.
- Heating method
- This unit is specified as indirect heat, commonly using a gas burner to heat air which then roasts the beans, offering precise temperature control and a clean roast.
- Power supply
- Beyond gas for heating, electrical power is typically required for motors driving the drum, fan, and cooling tray. Common industrial voltages (e.g., 3-phase 400V) are often found on units of this type, though single-phase options may exist for smaller components.
- Footprint
- A 10Kg roaster typically requires a dedicated space, including room for bean loading, cooling, and exhaust ducting. Exact dimensions vary, but buyers should anticipate a footprint suitable for light industrial or commercial kitchen environments.
- Cooling system
- Units of this class commonly feature an integrated cooling tray and fan system to rapidly cool roasted beans, preventing over-roasting and preserving flavour.
- Control system
- Roasters in this category typically feature manual or semi-automatic controls for drum speed, airflow, and temperature, often with digital readouts for monitoring.
