This has been running successfully for the last 40plus years with the current owner.

It has stopped production 12 months ago due to Covid.

It is a classic G- Series model with double walled drum and a nice lever to open and close the front discharge door.

It is set-up to run on LPG Propane gas and requires 3-Phase electrical connection.

We are advsied it does require some attention to the wiring and the gas pressure may need resetting.

It could be easily upgraded with temperature probes and USB Bridge to connect to either Cropster or Artisan roast profiling software through an iPad/ iPhone/Tablet/PC/Laptop, if required.

Overall this is a good quality classic G-series vintage model Probat roaster, available immediately for sale in the UK.

It was originally purchased by the previous owners in 1995 where it ran very successfully in New Zealand until 2010. It was then professionally shipped over to the UK and was running again very successfully in a Speciality Coffee Roastery in London until 2016, when it was replaced with a larger capacity roaster.

First photo shows it when it was previously installed in London in 2016/17 and the rest of it now in storage.

It is now in storage in the UK awaiting sale.
