Probat GG120HS

• Commercial coffee roasting operations requiring batch processing.
• Speciality coffee producers looking to control roast profiles.
• Larger cafes or small-to-medium scale coffee distributors.
• Operations requiring consistent quality for medium to large batch sizes.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, batch capacities commonly range from 60kg to 120kg per roast.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a three-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with appropriate amperage for heating elements and motors.

Heating method

Probat GG series roasters commonly utilise gas-fired heating, typically natural gas or LPG, for efficient heat transfer.

Cooling system

Integrated cooling trays with powerful fans are standard for rapidly cooling roasted beans, often with an external chaff collector.

Footprint

A Probat GG120HS would typically require a significant operational footprint, including space for the roaster, destoner, and bean storage.

Control system

Older models commonly feature semi-manual controls for drum speed, airflow, and burner intensity, while newer versions may include more advanced digital interfaces.

• What is a destoner and why is it included?

  A destoner removes foreign objects like stones, metal, or glass from roasted coffee beans. It is crucial for product quality and protecting grinding equipment.

• What kind of maintenance does a used Probat roaster require?

• Can this roaster be converted to different fuel types?

• What should I check when buying a used roaster of this model?

• Is training typically available for operating such a 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.
