Kafgar 20 kg Coffee Roaster

The Kafgar 20 kg roaster is where industrial roasting starts. It fits specialty brands that have outgrown shop-type machines but still want a footprint that suits a normal production room, handling 20 kg in 12 to 16 minutes with automation that takes routine adjustments off the operator. The drum and housing are ST52 stainless steel, sized for continuous commercial use rather than occasional roasting.

A full PLC touchscreen runs the machine. You build a roast profile once, store it, and the controller holds drum speed and airflow to that curve on every batch, which is how a growing brand keeps a blend tasting the same as it scales. Operators still pull samples and watch the roast, but the machine carries the steady-state work.

It runs on 380V at 50 or 60 Hz, draws 4 KW, and uses water-assisted air cooling to bring 20 kg batches down fast enough to keep a production schedule moving. An energy-efficient burner and the standard novasit gas breaker valve keep fuel use in check and shut the line down on a pressure fault or at target temperature.

The 20 kg is meant to anchor a line as the business grows. An afterburner, integrated destoner, green bean loader and silo system all connect to it, so a roastery can add automation in stages instead of replacing the machine later.
