Who is Kuban Coffee Roasters?

Founded in 1996 in İzmir, Turkey, Kuban Coffee Roasters (part of Kuban Makina) is a passionate, boutique manufacturer of coffee roasting equipment, grinders, and bean dispensers. With nearly three decades of dedication, they've grown into a global partner for coffee professionals, exporting to over 60 countries and serving boutique roasteries, cafés, training labs, and industrial clients.

Kuban Base 3 kg Manual Roaster – Built for serious small-batch roasting 

If you're ready to take your roasting to the next level, the Kuban Base 3 kg Manual Roaster offers the perfect balance of batch size, flexibility, and control. Designed in İzmir, Turkey by Kuban Coffee Roasters, this model delivers professional-grade roasting capacity in a compact, elegant machine—ideal for micro-roasteries, cafés, training centres, and startup coffee brands.

 Why the Base 3kg Stands Out

• Generous batch size with compact footprint
  Roast up to 3 kg of green coffee per batch, delivering approximately 12 kg/hour of roasted output. Whether you're profiling new origins or preparing café blends, this model gives you the throughput you need—without the space strain.

• Fully manual, fully responsive
  Designed for artisans who prefer hands-on control, the Base 3 kg features manual flame, drum speed, and airflow adjustment, putting you in charge of every stage of development. For those wanting to automate later, it’s compatible with PLC touchscreen control and roasting software (Cropster & Artisan).

• Efficient heat and roast uniformity
  The Base series is engineered for thermal stability and even bean development, with a double-walled, heat-insulated drum, responsive temperature sensors, and proportional burner for smooth, repeatable roasts.

• Integrated chaff collector & 4-motor system
  With dedicated motors for the drum, cooling tray, exhaust fan, and chaff cyclone, your roast zone stays clean and cool while keeping workflow fluid. The cooling tray brings batches down fast, preserving clarity in the cup.

• Industrial-grade build
  Stainless steel, high-heat ceramic insulation, and Kuban’s reputation for quality mean this roaster is made to last—and built to impress.

Technical Highlights

Who It's For

• Growing micro-roasteries ready for consistent volume

• Café owners wanting full roast control with room to scale

• Coffee educators & labs seeking manual control + software tracking

• Passionate roasters who love the process from flame to finish

• Exporters or private-label producers looking for durable performance

In a Nutshell

The Kuban Base 3 kg brings you:

• Small-batch versatility with serious output

• Fully manual flame, airflow, and drum control

• Quiet, thermally stable, and built for continuous use

• Four-motor efficiency + fast cooling tray

• Upgrade path to software tracking and touch control

It’s a robust, no-nonsense workhorse for those who want more than just a machine—they want a roasting partner that performs.
