The 12kg Coffee Roaster for Wholesale, Origin and Chain Roasting
A 12kg coffee roaster is where a roastery stops being a café with a machine and becomes a supplier: 10–13 kg charges, one operator, green coffee arriving by the pallet. Two Yoshan roasters cover the size. The YS-12KG is semi-automatic — gas, airflow and drum speed set on a Siemens touchscreen station, the drop called by you — at USD 9,980. The SD-12KG Pro is fully automatic: a PLC records your curve and replays it, with the vacuum loader in the USD 15,999 price. Both have cast-iron drums, roast semi hot-air and run on LPG or natural gas — the YS-12KG also on 380 V electric — and both are rated 13 kg — which is why anyone looking for a 10kg coffee roaster machine ends up here.

What Is Built Into Every 12kg Coffee Roaster
Who Runs a 12kg Coffee Roaster
The four roasteries that order this size, and the model each one usually takes.
You supply cafés, hotels and offices and roast most days of the week. The SD-12KG Pro runs 3.5–13 kg charges on a saved curve at 18–52 kg an hour with the loader feeding the hopper, so one operator roasts while packing. Add the YS-Q12 destoner before the drum and the YS-JD-Q6 filter if the exhaust reaches a street.
Kenya, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Indonesia: you roast your own parchment for export samples and a local brand. The YS-12KG takes 1–13 kg so a single-lot sample and a full commercial batch run on the same drum, on LPG from cylinders where the gas line is unreliable, at USD 9,980 with the Siemens station showing the curve.
Your customers taste the same private label blend in every branch, so the roast cannot drift with the operator. The SD-12KG Pro replays the approved curve batch after batch and switches to manual when you develop a new one. A line of 6–12 kg roasters, ESP filter and industrial grinder was commissioned this way by our engineer in Myanmar.
You searched for a 10kg coffee roaster because 6 kg means roasting every day and 20 kg needs a bigger room. This is the class we build for that step: 13 kg rated, 10 kg charges with headroom, the same semi hot-air drum as your 6 kg so profiles transfer with some re-tuning, and the loader already in the Pro price.
Looking for a 10kg Coffee Roaster? Get 13 kg Rated
We do not build a drum rated at 10 kg. Our 10 kg class is the 12kg coffee roaster: the YS-12KG and SD-12KG Pro are rated 13 kg, so 10 kg loads run with margin to spare — even development, a short cycle — and 13 kg is still there for the big order. Same footprint, more coffee out of every shift — that is the upgrade.
What Fully Automatic Means on the SD-12KG Pro
On the fully automatic 12kg coffee roaster the PLC holds bean temperature, gas and airflow to the saved curve and signals the end of the profile, so the roast repeats without an operator watching the screen. Charging the drum and releasing the batch into the cooling tray remain manual at this size; pneumatic discharge begins at the SD-20KG Pro. Switch to manual mode whenever you develop a new profile, then save it.
Gas, Pressure and 380 V for a 12kg Coffee Roaster
Gas is the default for a 12kg coffee roaster: the YS-12KG burns natural gas at 4 m³/h or LPG at 1.4 m³/h, drawing 1,500 W from a 220–240 V single-phase socket, regulator set for your gas. Electric heating at this size means a 380 V three-phase supply: the YS-12KG is built electric on request and quoted individually, and electric roasters arrive without a plug, for your electrician to wire to a breaker. Full-load current is on your quotation.
Exhaust, Smoke Filter and Afterburner at 12 kg
A 12kg coffee roaster needs its exhaust ducted by a straight route to outside. In a residential street or a mall, fit the YS-JD-Q6 electrostatic filter (6,000 m³/h, USD 2,390) on the drum line; where an inspector asks for smoke and odour destruction, the YS-HR12 afterburner (30,000–50,000 kcal/h, USD 5,800) burns them before the flue. Duct diameters and fan positions are on the drawing pack.
Loader, Destoner and the Rest of the Line
At 10–13 kg a charge the sack on the shoulder stops: the vacuum loader lifts green coffee 4.5 m into the hopper and is included with the SD-12KG Pro, or USD 2,950 as the TSL-YS12 for the YS-12KG. Put the YS-Q12 destoner (12 kg in 2 minutes, USD 2,109) ahead of the drum so stones never reach it, and quote the grinder and packing line with the 12kg coffee roaster so everything ships in one container.
Test-Roasted, Filmed, Crated: Acceptance Before the Balance
Every 12kg coffee roaster is built to order, run with green coffee on our floor and filmed; you see the video and the crate photographs before the balance is paid. The fumigated wooden case carries the drawing pack, tool kit and manual, and the machine ships under CE certificate AH2023062101 (Machinery and Low Voltage Directives) with RoHS report AH2023062102 — see every certificate.

FAQ
Our 10 kg class is the 12kg coffee roaster: the YS-12KG and SD-12KG Pro are both rated 13 kg per batch, so you charge 10 kg well inside capacity and still have room for 13 kg. There is no separate 10 kg drum — the bigger drum is what you get, on the same footprint.
The SD-12KG Pro is rated 18–52 kg of roasted coffee an hour on 3.5–13 kg batches of 8–15 minutes. The YS-12KG turns a 1–13 kg batch in 12–15 minutes; how many kilos that makes in an hour depends on your charge weight and roast degree, so ask and we calculate it for your profile instead of printing one figure.
Yes: the YS-12KG is built with electric heating on a 380 V three-phase supply and quoted individually; tell us if you need the SD-12KG Pro electric and we confirm. The gas YS-12KG runs from a 220–240 V single-phase socket at 1,500 W. Full-load current for your voltage is stated on the quotation, and electric roasters are wired to a breaker rather than plugged in.
The YS-12KG as a 12kg gas coffee roaster burns natural gas at 4 m³/h or LPG at 1.4 m³/h, and the regulator is set for your gas type at the factory. Supply pressure and the SD-12KG Pro's consumption are stated on the drawing pack with your quotation, together with the pipe size your gas fitter needs.
The PLC controls temperature and airflow to a saved curve and replays it batch after batch, and you can switch to manual at any point. Charging the drum and releasing the batch into the cooling tray are done by the operator at this size; pneumatic discharge is fitted from the SD-20KG Pro upward.
The YS-12KG measures 2290 × 1881 × 2279 mm and weighs 758 kg, so check the doorway, the ceiling clearance for the loader pipe and the floor loading before delivery; the SD-12KG Pro's figures are on its drawing pack. Allow room to open the drum door, walk round the cooling tray and route the exhaust duct outside.
Each machine is built to your colour and gas specification, so your quotation carries the confirmed delivery date and we send production photographs as it takes shape. You pay half by bank transfer to open the order and the other half before shipment, once you have watched the test roast; ocean freight and a DDP line to your door are itemised on the same quotation.
One year from delivery on the machine, extendable to two years for USD 699 at order. Wear parts are sent by courier and our engineer works with yours on video; the drawing pack, tool kit and manual ship in the case so your technician can service the burner, bearings and cyclone locally.

Sizing Guide: 10 kg Charges, Gas or Electric, Site and Landed Cost for a 12kg Coffee Roaster
Why a 10 kg Buyer Ends Up With a 13 kg Drum
A drum's rating is its ceiling, not its working load; repeatable roasting happens below it. A 10kg coffee roaster that runs 10 kg batches all day is therefore a drum rated above 10 kg and loaded at 10 — which is the YS-12KG and SD-12KG Pro at 13 kg. Charge 10 kg for your standard production batch, 13 kg when a wholesale order lands, and 3.5 kg on the Pro or 1 kg on the YS for a sample lot. When you compare every 10kg coffee roaster for sale, or ask for a 10kg coffee roaster price, compare rated capacity and cycle time, not the number in the name.
YS-12KG or SD-12KG Pro
Both 12kg coffee roaster models are cast-iron, semi hot-air drums with 1–2 minute cooling and a screen. The YS-12KG is the roaster for someone who roasts by hand and wants the data: gas, airflow and drum speed are set on the Siemens station, the curve is on the screen, the drop is your call, and it costs USD 9,980. The SD-12KG Pro is for a roastery where the roast must not depend on who is on shift: the PLC replays the approved curve, the loader lifts the green coffee, and at 18–52 kg an hour one operator runs the line for USD 15,999 all in. If you already know you will roast 15 kg lots next year, the YS-15KG and SD-15KG Pro share the footprint.
Moving Up From 6 kg: Your Profiles Will Move Too
A 13 kg drum carries more metal and more coffee than a 7 kg one, so it heats and recovers on a different rhythm. Your 6 kg curves are the right shape but the wrong numbers: plan re-profiling time on the new machine, charging 10 kg and logging every roast, before you commit a customer's blend to it. The Pro makes this quicker because every trial is saved and the good one becomes the production profile.
Site, Gas and Exhaust
Plan for 2290 × 1881 × 2279 mm and 758 kg for the YS-12KG — check the doorway and the ceiling height for the loader pipe before the crate arrives — and take the SD-12KG Pro's footprint from its drawing pack. You need a gas line or a cylinder bank sized for 4 m³/h of natural gas or 1.4 m³/h of LPG, a 220–240 V socket, and an exhaust route to outside; 380 V three-phase only if you choose electric heating. Send us a floor sketch and we return the layout with duct diameters and clearances.
Landed Cost, Lead Time and Payment
USD 9,980 and USD 15,999 buy the complete machine EXW Shenzhen — loader included on the Pro — with the destoner at USD 2,109, the filter at 2,390 and the afterburner at 5,800 on top. Your quotation adds sea freight to your port, insurance and a DDP line with duties so you know the landed cost before the deposit. Because each roaster is built to your specification, the quotation states the confirmed delivery date and you receive photographs as it is built. Terms are half to open the order and half after the test-roast video, before shipment; one year of warranty, or two for USD 699.
