This is a classic vintage Probat roaster which is still currently in operation for around 2 months. It will be disconnected mid-January 2024 and available for collection end of January 2024, after their new larger capacity roaster arrives.

Located in Europe.

It comes complete with Cyclone and Destoner and afterburner.

It is fitted with Temperature Probes connected to Cropster for roast profiling.

The gas train has been upgraded to Krom Schroeder and meets all current gas safety regulations with fully automatic ignition.

The water quenching pipe has been disconnected, but it would be posisble to reconnect this if required to reduce the loss of weight in the coffee once roasted.

The afterburner needs some attention. The burner stopped working in August 2023, so this may need to be replaced.

It has the original burners and gearbox to the rear of the roaster.

This is a great example of a vintage Probat G45 Roaster with original set-up.

This has been roasting very successfully at a small coffee roastery in Essex for the last 35 years.

It has had two gas gauges fitted in the last 5 years to allow control over both burner rails.

It is fitted with a full modulating gas burner running on LPG Propane gas.

Gas Pressure: Min & Max - 50mbar

It requires a 3 Phase electrical connection: 

380-400v - 50Hz, 28kW, 24,000 kcal/hr.

It has had some new cooling tray stirring arms parts fitted in the last 2 years, supplied by Probat.

It is also fitted with 2 x Temperature probes for Bean temperature and Exhaust temperature which have been used to run on Artisan roast profiling software.

It has a solid double walled drum and built-in Cyclone under the cooling tray.

It has been regularly serviced and is available immediately.

It is missing a sightglass on the front face plate and it could benefit from being repainted, but mechanically it is sound and has been producing some award winning coffee.

This was in production until Nov 2017.

It is now in storage in Essex, England.

In fair condition, but the burner needs attention or replacing.

Available immediately.

It is being sold in 'as is' condition or we can do a complete refurbishment on it for you to order.
