An industrial coffee roaster is a large-capacity roasting machine — typically 20kg per batch and above — designed for commercial coffee factories, private-label operations, and large-scale wholesale roasters. If your business needs to roast hundreds of kilograms per day with consistent quality and minimal downtime, an industrial machine is the only viable solution.
What Counts as an Industrial Coffee Roaster?
- 20kg–30kg — small factory or large roastery
- 60kg — medium factory, private label production
- 120kg — large factory, regional brand supply
- 200kg–360kg — industrial-scale, national distribution
Who Buys Industrial Coffee Roasters?
- Coffee factories producing packaged coffee for retail chains
- Private label roasters roasting under multiple brand names
- Hotel and restaurant groups with centralized roasting
- Coffee exporters who roast value-added product for destination markets
Yoshan Industrial Coffee Roasters: SD Series 20kg–360kg
The SD Series is Yoshan’s industrial-grade line, available from 20kg to 360kg per batch, refined over 30+ years of manufacturing.
Key industrial features:
- Siemens PLC automation — programmable roast profiles, automatic batch logging
- Automatic loader — pneumatic green bean loading eliminates manual labor on large batches
- Afterburner — eliminates smoke and VOC emissions for regulated zones
- Destoner — removes rocks and metal from green beans before roasting
Industrial Roasting Plants: Complete Turnkey Lines
Most buyers at this scale are not shopping for a lone machine — they are building industrial roasting plants: roaster, green bean silo and loader, destoner, afterburner or ESP smoke filter, cooling and conveying, through to grinding and packaging. Yoshan supplies the full line matched around the roaster, which avoids the airflow and throughput mismatches that happen when equipment is pieced together from different suppliers. See our step-by-step coffee roasting plant setup guide for facility planning, and the price guide for budget ranges.
How to Vet Industrial Roasting Plant Manufacturers
When comparing industrial roasting plant manufacturers, five checks separate real factories from trading companies:
- Factory video call — ask to see your machine class in production, live, not stock footage
- Component brands in writing — PLC (Siemens), motors, burners specified on the proforma invoice
- Reference installations — ask for running plants in your region; Yoshan has industrial lines operating across the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Africa and Latin America
- Emissions engineering — a manufacturer that cannot size an afterburner to local regulations will leave you with a plant you cannot legally run
- Commissioning terms — on-site installation support for 60kg+ machines should be offered, not negotiated later
Yoshan has manufactured roasting equipment since 1990 and ships industrial lines factory-direct with CE and SGS documentation.
Industrial Coffee Roaster Capacity Planning
| Machine Size | Daily Output (8h) | Annual Capacity |

| 20kg | ~336 kg | ~84 tonnes |
| 60kg | ~1,008 kg | ~252 tonnes |
| 120kg | ~1,613 kg | ~403 tonnes |
| 300kg | ~3,024 kg | ~756 tonnes |
Frequently Asked Questions
What certifications do industrial coffee roasters need?
For Europe: CE marking and SGS testing. For Middle East: SASO (Saudi Arabia), ESMA (UAE). Yoshan provides CE and SGS documentation and assists with country-specific certifications. How to verify certificates before paying: CE certification guide.
How long does installation take?
Mechanical installation of a 60kg–120kg machine takes 3–5 days. Full commissioning adds another 2–3 days. Yoshan provides on-site installation service for large machines.
Can I expand capacity later?
Yes. Many Yoshan factory customers start with a 20kg or 60kg and add a second unit as demand grows.
