Manufacturer of Coffee Roasting Machines

Choosing the right coffee roasting machine is a crucial step for any entrepreneur in the coffee industry. Coffee roasters are the heart of every coffee roastery, influencing the quality and taste of the final product. Among the leading manufacturers of coffee roasting machines on the market is Stronghold, a company that delivers technologically advanced devices for roasting coffee beans. This manufacturer has earned the trust of many baristas and roastery owners thanks to its innovative solutions and reliability, offering coffee roasting machines that meet the highest quality standards.

Which Coffee Roaster to Choose?

When selecting a coffee roaster, several key factors should be considered. First and foremost, it depends on the scale of production — a different coffee roaster will be suitable for a small café than for a large roastery. The coffee roaster should be tailored to the planned amount of beans you intend to roast at one time. Pay attention to the ability to regulate temperature and the time required for roasting. The materials from which the coffee roaster is made can affect the final flavor of the coffee. Also, consider the ease of cleaning and maintaining the selected model.

Coffee Roaster S7X

The S7X coffee roaster is a modern device designed for café owners and enthusiasts of freshly roasted coffee. Equipped with advanced features allowing better temperature control — including drum heating options, x-lens technology for reading the actual surface of the coffee beans for enhanced temperature control, and three different methods of heat conduction — the S7X coffee roaster enables precise roasting control, resulting in excellent bean quality and high flavor profile consistency, essential for cafés. The S7X model boasts high energy efficiency, an optimal batch size for smaller roasteries, cafés, or private users — from 150 to 850 grams — and a durable construction with dimensions of 65 × 62 × 88.5 cm, making it an ideal choice for both small and larger cafés wanting to serve self-roasted coffee.

Coffee Roaster S9X

The S9X coffee roaster is designed for roasteries seeking excellence in bean roasting. This coffee roaster enables automated production of beans with consistent flavor profiles and high quality thanks to Stronghold technology. Its large capacity — from 3 to 8 kilograms per batch — allows for optimized production efficiency. Features such as airflow control, drum heating system, and high power (34.3 kW) contribute to the creation of high-quality roasted coffee. The roaster is also equipped with a husk distribution system that ensures safety during large-scale roasting — the device automatically collects husks and dispenses them outside the cyclone, reducing the risk of fire. Its robust construction with dimensions of 142 × 125 × 190.5 cm and the use of high-quality materials ensure long-lasting durability. The exceptional S9X is an investment in a flavorful future.

Coffee Roaster S7Pro

The S7Pro coffee roaster is designed with coffee specialty fans in mind, catering to both professionals and those just beginning their journey. It operates using standard electrical outlets, making it suitable for use anywhere with power access. The Roastware system allows roasting using both pre-programmed modes and manual parameter settings. Features like a large display, viewing window, and sampler make it ideal for beginners and advanced coffee roasters alike. Similar in size to the S7X (65 × 62 × 88.5 cm), the S7Pro is compact yet equipped with everything needed for perfect coffee roasting. With a batch capacity of 850 grams and a cooling tray that cools roasted coffee in under two minutes, this roaster is highly efficient. Additionally, the Roastware system includes functions for saving manual user settings and replicating flavor profiles, adapting the roaster's settings to external variables to ensure consistent flavor, regardless of ambient temperature and humidity.

Coffee Roaster S8X

The S8X coffee roaster, introduced in 2024, is a solution for enthusiasts of freshly roasted coffee. This roaster features modern technologies and efficiency in the roasting process. With dimensions of 97.5 × 83.5 × 140.4 cm, it has a hopper that can handle 1.5 to 4.5 kilograms of beans per batch, making it an optimal choice for cafés preparing their coffee and roasteries offering smaller coffee batches. In addition to the Roastware technology, viewing window, and sampler, the S8X includes LED lighting for the cooling tray, facilitating the assessment of roast levels during the final preparation stages. The device also features a blower with adjustable airflow, allowing for even more precise flavor profile customization during roasting.

What to Consider When Choosing a Coffee Roaster for Your Roastery or Café?

When choosing a coffee roaster to meet the needs of a coffee roastery or café, it is essential to consider several key aspects. First, the size of the coffee roaster must align with the planned production volumes to ensure efficient operation. Another critical criterion is the quality of construction and materials, which ensures the device's longevity and reliability. Temperature control capability is vital for precise coffee roasting. Reliable safety systems and ease of use are additional features worth considering.

How Much Does a Coffee Roaster Cost?

When considering the cost of a coffee roaster, it's essential to account for the variety of available models and their functionalities. The price of a coffee roaster can vary significantly depending on size, brand, and technological features. A basic coffee roaster with smaller capacity, intended for home baristas, can cost a few thousand PLN. On the other hand, professional equipment used in cafés or roasteries can cost tens of thousands. The cost of a coffee roaster is a significant factor in choosing the best device.
