Classic 12-kilo Probat Used Coffee Roaster

 

1990 — Low Use — Great Condition

 

Did you know that classic Probat roasters, like this 12kg Probat L12, are highly sought after by third-wave roasteries? It's true—roasting insiders know that Probats excel at producing well-developed coffees across a range of roast levels.

The secret lies in their construction. With cast iron components and a steel drum, this roaster offers exceptional thermal stability. Combined with consistent airflow, straightforward operation, and powerful burners, it delivers plenty of heat to your green coffee.

Coffee from a Probat just tastes great, thanks to its precise tuning that ensures properly developed, well-rounded, and delicious brews.

The current seller certainly knows the power of a Probat. Having two of the same machine, he sought to prolong this one's perfection through a series of refurbishments: new bearings and fan, and a fine tuning welding to the stainless cooling tray, plus a thorough clean-and-polish. 

He also made a small modification on the left side of the machine for a fire suppression system required by local code.

Purchased used, roasts on this sweetheart were about one day a week before going into storage. Last roast was just about five years ago. Been in storage since as it has been refurbished to its current condition within the last two years.

Even with all of this loving attention, the seller is letting this blue beauty go only because he has a higher-capacity roaster that can handle the job solo. 

Don't let this classic Probat slip by! Click for a quote, call us @ 855.585.2500, or call/text Rick directly @ 949.289.8083 for additional details and next steps. It's ready to go!

Frequently Asked Buyer Questions

Once a Used Elite equipment sale has transacted, what’s involved in relocating the equipment?

Once the seller confirms full payment has been received, CEPros will move on the previously scheduled equipment prep and engage the crating company and freight company. Or, if optioned, CEPros will facilitate a buyer pick-up.

CEPros requires crating companies to take photos of the equipment crating that are reviewed and approved by us before freight is scheduled.
This assures a safe equipment transport.

Once the crating photos have been approved, CEPros notifies the buyer the equipment is ready to ship and confirms the delivery address and buyer's schedule.

All shipments are insured and include an appointment delivery time that works with your schedule.

Learn more about our Service Guarantee.

What communications can I expect when listing equipment to sell or after I purchase?

Our goal is to negotiate a quick and seamless transaction, and ongoing communication is key. We will stay in close contact with you every step of the way during your roasting equipment selling or buying process with CEPros. You will always know what the next step is. Our goal is for you to hear from us first, but if you ever have a question, just contact us. We're a quick phone call, text, or email away!

What is your 48-Hour Quick Pay Promise?

We offer every Used Elite Seller our 48-Hour QuickPay Promise. Meaning, the moment you transact your equipment purchase, we immediately process payment to the seller.

What this means to you is no distractions, no delays, and no excuses in getting your equipment to you. Because, at CEPros, we know that Roasters Need to Roast. And that means getting that piece of equipment to you and to work as quickly as possible.

Can I finance equipment other than a new roaster?

Yes! You can finance anything you purchase from CEPros, including our new ancillary and Used Elite equipment. You can even finance our Tek-Net service packages!

What is Equipment Bundling?

Coffee equipment bundling lets you combine ancillary coffee roasting equipment and/or a coffee roaster into a single package or offering, often at a discounted price. This can include items like destoners, grinders, K-cup fillers, and sealers. Bundling eliminates the need to shop for individual items separately, saving time and potentially reducing costs. Learn more about how you can save with equipment bundling and one-stop shopping.

What are the benefits of utilizing CEPros Tek-Net and purchasing a service package?

When we set up your new or Used Elite coffee roaster to integrate seamlessly into your coffee roastery, you should see performance and profit gains quickly. You'll minimize training lag (eliminate learning curve with tech assistance), hit roasting quotas (achieve full production performance quickly), and increase profits (start producing coffee faster with less waste and minimal downtime).
