The 20kg Coffee Roaster: Top of the Shop Range, Entry to the Plant Range
A 20kg coffee roaster is the hinge in a roastery's life. Below it you buy a machine; at 20 kg you buy a line — loader, destoner, cyclones, exhaust treatment — and the questions change from how it roasts to how it lands, connects and passes inspection. Two Yoshan roasters sit here. The YS-20 is the semi-automatic one: a Siemens control station, the green-bean loader in its USD 18,999 price, and a push-button panel instead of the screen if your team prefers it, at no change in price. The SD-20KG Pro is the automatic one: 15–22 kg charges, 60–80 kg of roasted coffee an hour, all-cast-iron drum and full hot-air heating, supplied with loader and destoner for USD 38,599.

What Is Built Into Every 20kg Coffee Roaster
Who Runs a 20kg Coffee Roaster
The four operations this size lands in, and which machine each one signs for.

You supply supermarkets, offices and a wholesale book that fills a shift every day of the week. The SD-20KG Pro turns 15–22 kg charges into 60–80 kg of roasted coffee an hour under PLC control, and the loader and destoner are already in the set, so your operator runs the roast instead of carrying sacks up to the hopper and picking stones out of the green.

You roast at source for export buyers and for a domestic brand, and gas is the supply you can count on. The YS-20 keeps the Siemens control station your roastmaster already knows from our smaller machines, burns LPG or natural gas, and lands at USD 18,999 with its loader included, the lower-priced of the two 20 kg machines we build.

Every branch, and every retailer's bag, has to taste the same, so the roast cannot drift when the shift changes. The SD-20KG Pro holds the profile on its PLC across the 0–400 °C range; on the YS-20 the screen shows burner, damper, drum and cooling on a single page, which is what makes a second operator quick to train.

You sell roasters in your market, or you are commissioning a plant from a bare floor and need one supplier to answer for all of it. We ship roaster, loader, destoner, cyclones, grinder and packing machines in one container, finished in your colours with your logo; a 6–12 kg line with smoke filtration and an industrial grinder was commissioned on site in Myanmar by our engineer working with the customer's own technicians.

What the Price Includes — and What It Does Not
Both 20kg coffee roaster models ship with their green-bean loader. The SD-20KG Pro set adds the destoner, so USD 38,599 covers roaster, loader and destoner together. The afterburner is drawn on the line layout but is not in that price: it is USD 7,300 for the YS-HB40 rated at 20–40 kg. Electrostatic smoke filtration is sized against your exhaust run and quoted with the line, and the grinder and packing machines are optional on the same quotation.
Semi-Automatic YS-20 or Fully Automatic SD-20KG Pro
The YS-20 puts the roast in your operator's hands: burner, damper, drum speed and cooling on one Siemens page, or on a push-button panel at the same price if your team would rather have switches. The SD-20KG Pro holds the profile itself under PLC control at 60–80 kg an hour. The gap between the two 20kg coffee roaster prices — USD 18,999 against 38,599 — is automation, the all-cast-iron drum, full hot-air heating and the destoner in the set.


Power, Gas and the 0–400 °C Range
A 20kg coffee roaster runs on 220 or 380 V depending on the configuration, with the full-load current written on your quotation rather than guessed here. Gas is LPG or natural gas, 4.5 m³/h on the SD-20KG Pro, with the burner and regulator set for your supply before the crate is closed, and the drum works anywhere in the 0–400 °C range. From 20 kg up we build gas machines only, so plan the gas supply rather than an electric one.
Emissions at 20 kg: Destoner, Filter, Afterburner
Three things sit between a 20kg coffee roaster and its flue. The destoner protects the drum and is in the Pro's price. An electrostatic filter handles visible smoke where a street or a landlord demands it, sized against your duct run and quoted with the line. The YS-HB40 afterburner burns smoke and odour at 50,000–70,000 kcal/h for USD 7,300 where a permit requires destruction rather than filtration. Your drawing shows all three positions.


Why 60–90 Working Days
Nothing in the 20 kg class is on a shelf. The frame is cut and welded, the cast-iron drum machined, the control station or PLC built and wired, the body sprayed in your colour with your logo, then the machine is assembled, test-roasted and crated with its loader. That is the 60–90 working days quoted for every 20kg coffee roaster and every larger line, and production photographs reach you along the way.
Commissioned on Site, Warranty From Receipt
Your 20kg coffee roaster is test-roasted with green coffee and filmed before it is crated, and the video and crate photographs reach you before the balance falls due. Warranty runs twelve months from the day the goods reach you, extendable to two years for USD 699 at order. For full lines we send an engineer to commission on site, as we did for a roasting line in Myanmar; certificates are on the certifications page.

FAQ
The YS-20 at USD 18,999 includes the roaster and its green-bean loader (without weighing). The SD-20KG Pro at USD 38,599 includes roaster, loader and destoner as one set. The afterburner is on the line drawing but priced separately at USD 7,300, and smoke filtration is sized and quoted with your exhaust run.
The SD-20KG Pro is rated 60–80 kg of roasted coffee an hour on 15–22 kg batches with a 15–20 minute cycle. For the YS-20 our catalogue does not publish an hourly figure, so we confirm it in writing on the quotation for your gas, voltage and roast level rather than estimate it here.
Because the 2026 catalogue does not list batch size, output, cycle time or gas consumption for that model, and we do not publish numbers we cannot source. Ask for a quotation and the figures come back confirmed for the configuration you want, together with the drawing pack for your room.
No. From 20 kg up we build gas machines only — LPG or natural gas — and the SD-20KG Pro uses 4.5 m³/h of either. Electric heating is available lower down the range, up to 15 kg, where a 380 V three-phase supply replaces the burner. Tell us the supply at your site and we will say which machine suits it.
Depending on the configuration, 220 or 380 V, with the full-load current stated on your quotation so your electrician can size the breaker and cable before delivery. The machine is wired to a breaker rather than plugged in, and the drawing pack shows where the supply and the gas connection arrive.
It depends on your authority. Where visible smoke is the issue, an electrostatic filter on the duct is usually enough and is quoted with the line. Where the permit requires smoke and odour to be destroyed, the YS-HB40 afterburner covers 20–40 kg roasters at 50,000–70,000 kcal/h for USD 7,300.
Every machine this size is built to order: frame, machined cast-iron drum, control station or PLC panel, your body colour and logo, then assembly, test roast and crating with the loader. That is the lead time we quote for 20 kg and above, and you receive production photographs while it is being built.
Stay at 20 kg while 60–80 kg an hour covers your orders: USD 38,599 for the Pro set, or USD 18,999 for the semi-automatic YS-20. Move to 30 kg when you need 90–120 kg an hour — the SD-30KG Pro complete set is USD 51,499 with the afterburner already included.
Sizing Guide: What Changes at 20 kg, YS-20 or SD-20KG Pro, and What the Line Costs Landed
What Changes When You Cross 20 kg
At 15 kg you can still treat the roaster as one machine in a room. A 20kg coffee roaster arrives as a line: the loader that feeds it, the destoner that protects the drum, cyclones and ducting, and whatever your authority requires between the flue and the sky. Deliveries come by pallet, the crate needs equipment to move, and a commercial coffee roaster 20kg and above takes 60–90 working days to build because nothing this size is stocked. Planning the room, the gas and the exhaust early is what keeps the installation short.
YS-20 or SD-20KG Pro
The YS-20 is for roasters who want to drive: Siemens control station — or a push-button panel at the same price — loader included, USD 18,999, gas fired, semi hot-air and semi direct fire on a cast-iron ring drum. The SD-20KG Pro is for plants where output and repeatability decide: 15–22 kg charges, 60–80 kg of roasted coffee an hour, all-cast-iron drum, full hot-air heating, PLC control across 0–400 °C, loader and destoner in the USD 38,599 set. Both are built to the same lead time, so choosing a 20kg coffee roaster here is about how you want to run the roast, not when it arrives.
Honest Numbers on the YS-20
Our 2026 catalogue does not print batch, hourly output, cycle time or gas figures for the YS-20 — so this page does not either. What you get instead is the figure confirmed in writing on your quotation for the exact configuration you order, alongside the drawing pack. Estimating on a product page and correcting at the quotation stage is how a plant ends up with the wrong gas line; we would rather answer the question once, properly.
Twenty or Thirty
The SD-30KG Pro is the next step: 25–38 kg a batch, 90–120 kg an hour, 3–5 minute cooling, and USD 51,499 for a complete set that already includes the afterburner. If your volume is inside 60–80 kg an hour, the 20 kg set at USD 38,599 plus an afterburner at USD 7,300 is the cheaper route; above that, the 30 kg set is better value per kilo. The semi-automatic path runs in parallel — YS-20 at USD 18,999, YS-30 at USD 23,999, both with loaders.
Landed Cost, Payment and Acceptance
Machine prices are EXW Shenzhen. Your quotation adds ocean freight, insurance and a DDP line to your door, plus the destoner, afterburner, filter, grinder or packing machines you choose, so the comparison is made on the landed figure. Payment is half to open the order and half before shipment, after the test-roast video; warranty is twelve months from receipt, or twenty-four for USD 699. For a full line we can send an engineer to commission it with your technicians.
