About Our Coffee Roaster

Here at Artisti Coffee Roasters we use an IMF 30kg batch roaster. The IMF is a hot air hybrid roaster that enables us to produce a high volumes of coffee very efficiently while maintaining precision and consistency.

Our IMF has an afterburner, de-stoner (removes small stones from roasted beans so they don't ruin your grinder) and loader integrated into one unit resulting in a smaller than normal footprint compared with conventional roasters that use separate accessory systems.

Unlike conventional roasters that use a burner for the roaster and a separate burner to treat the emissions (afterburner), our IMF roaster uses only one burner chamber that sits to the side of the roaster. As the coffee is roasted, the emissions leave the roaster via a steel duct into the burner chamber to incinerate the emissions. Some of the heat in the burner chamber, which would otherwise be released into the atmosphere, is instead re-circulated via a stainless-steel duct back into the roaster. Ambient air is mixed into the duct electronically to reduce the heat to the required temperature to heat the beans for roasting, and the cycle starts again. This results in a minimum 30% reduction in gas consumption!

Leading the Coffs Coast coffee industry

A big challenge for coffee roasters is maintaining consistency as volume increases. Our IMF is equipped with VORTEX and EQUALIZER roasting technology to combat this.

The VORTEX system mixes ambient air into the hot airstream before it enters the roaster via an electronically operated modulating valve, so the air is already at the correct temperature before it enters the drum giving consistently uniform temperature of the hot airstream through the entire roasting process on every roast.

The EQUALIZER ensures the same volume of air enters the roaster. This feature delivers equal volumes of hot air both inside and surrounding the perforated alloy drum surface, giving even heat distribution across the entire surface of the coffee beans, and eliminating any temperature fluctuations inside the drum.

All this technology paired with sound roasting knowledge gives us consistent results and has noticeably enhanced our coffee's acidity and clean finish.
