Probat GO90

• Commercial coffee roasting operations requiring batch processing.
• Speciality coffee producers aiming for consistent roast profiles.
• Larger cafes or micro-roasteries expanding their production capabilities.
• Food processing facilities diversifying into roasted coffee production.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, batch capacities commonly range from 60kg to 90kg per roast.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a three-phase electrical supply, often 400V, 50Hz, with specific amperage depending on heating elements and motors.

Heating method

Probat roasters commonly utilise gas-fired heating for precise temperature control during the roasting process.

Footprint

A Probat GO90 line, including ancillary equipment, typically requires a significant industrial footprint, often several square metres, for installation and operation.

Controls

Older units commonly feature analogue controls, though some may have been upgraded to more modern PLC-based systems for enhanced roast profiling.

Material construction

Roasting drums and critical contact parts are typically constructed from robust cast iron or stainless steel for durability and heat retention.

• What is included in a 'roaster line'?

  A roaster line typically includes the roaster unit itself, a cooling tray, and often ancillary equipment such as a green bean loader, cyclone for chaff collection, and a destoner.

• What does 'partial refurbishment' entail?

• Can the refurbishment be tailored to my needs?

• What is the typical lifespan of a Probat roaster?

• Is installation and commissioning included?

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.
