Probat GG90

• Commercial coffee roasteries producing speciality and commodity coffee.
• Large-scale food processing facilities requiring roasted coffee beans as an ingredient.
• Coffee bean distributors looking to add in-house roasting capabilities.
• Industrial food and beverage manufacturers with high-volume coffee product lines.

Typical batch capacity

For a Probat GG90, the batch capacity is typically around 90 kg of green coffee beans.

Roasting method

Units of this type commonly employ drum roasting technology, using convection and conduction heat transfer.

Power supply

Industrial coffee roasters commonly require a three-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with specific amperage depending on heating elements and motor sizes.

Fuel type

Probat GG series roasters are typically gas-fired (natural gas or LPG), though electric versions can exist for smaller models.

Cooling method

Units typically feature an integrated cooling tray with an agitator and fan to rapidly cool roasted beans.

Ancillary equipment

As a 'roasting line', this class of equipment commonly includes a green bean loader, destoner, and cyclone for chaff collection.

Footprint

A complete roasting line of this capacity will require a significant industrial footprint, typically several square metres, including space for bean storage and access.

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

  A coffee roasting line typically includes the roaster itself, a cooling tray, a destoner to remove foreign objects from roasted beans, a green bean loader for automated feeding, and a cyclone for chaff separation.

• Why is a destoner important?

• What maintenance is typically required for a used roaster?

• Can this roaster be used for different roast profiles?

• What are the typical installation requirements?

• Is training usually needed to operate such 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.
