• Large-scale coffee shops or chains with in-house roasting.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

This unit is specified at 60kg per batch. For this class of equipment, capacities commonly range from 30kg to 120kg.

Power supply

Industrial coffee roasters typically require a three-phase electrical supply (e.g., 400V, 50Hz in the UK) for motors and heating elements.

Heating method

Units of this type commonly use gas (natural gas or LPG) for the roasting drum, with electrical components for controls and fans.

Footprint

A 60kg roaster, including ancillary equipment like a green bean loader, cyclone, and destoner, typically requires a dedicated space of at least 15-25 square metres.

Ancillary equipment

As noted, a green bean loader, cyclone for chaff collection, and a destoner are crucial for efficient and quality roasting. A cooling tray is also standard.

Construction materials

Roasting drums are typically constructed from cast iron or stainless steel for durability and heat retention. External panels are often powder-coated steel.

Control systems

Modern roasters commonly feature programmable logic controllers (PLCs) or digital interfaces for precise temperature and airflow management.
