Kuban Base 5kg Coffee Roaster
About the Brand
Kuban Coffee Roasters has been building roasting equipment in Bornova, İzmir, Turkey since 1996 — nearly three decades spent refining drum roasters, grinders and bean silos for the global coffee trade. The company now exports to more than 60 countries and supports over 5,000 customers, from micro-roasteries and training labs to industrial roasting operations. It's engineering depth rather than marketing gloss — the kind of pedigree that shows in the detail.
The Product
The Kuban Base 5kg is where production-scale performance meets artisanal control. It's built for micro-roasteries, wholesale suppliers and boutique cafés ready to scale their roasting without losing the craft — the sweet spot if you're producing 20kg or more per day or building out a wholesale arm for your brand.
Key Features
Batch-Ready for Real Growth (Headroom Without the Bulk)
A 3–5kg roasting capacity and up to 20kg/hour output give you production headroom while staying nimble — ideal for cafés supplying multiple locations or launching a retail line.
Manual Control With Pro-Level Feedback (Repeatable, Predictable)
Flame intensity, airflow and drum speed are all adjustable, paired with bean and exhaust temperature sensors and a double-walled, heat-retaining drum — built for consistency whether you're roasting by feel or tracking with Artisan or Cropster.
PLC-Ready, Software-Friendly (Scale Your Workflow)
Stick with the fully manual model, or upgrade to PLC touchscreen control and integrate with Artisan or Cropster for precision profiling and logging.
Strong Airflow & Fast Cooling (Efficient, Batch After Batch)
A 4-motor system (drum, cooling, exhaust, cyclone), a generous cooling tray with stirring arms, and a cyclone-style chaff collector keep your roasting area clean and efficient.
Industrial-Grade Craftsmanship (CE-Certified, Built for Daily Use)
Robust materials and CE certification back a machine engineered for longevity, right down to the bearings and insulation.
Who It's Built For
You're a roastery ready to scale up without jumping to industrial-size equipment, or a coffee business roasting daily volume for retail or wholesale. Whether you're roasting for cafés, subscriptions or supermarket shelves, the Base 5kg gives you flexibility without compromise.
