15kg Ambex YM-15 Used Coffee Roaster

2006 — Good Condition

We've steadily grown our vetted Ambex roasters collection, including 2kg, 10kg, and 60kg machines. And now we're adding this 2006 15kg Ambex YM-15 used coffee roasting machine to the line-up! If this were the winning hand in a card game, we might say we're "flush" with Ambex options for you!

There's a lot to admire about the Ambex brand. Founded by Yugoslav immigrants to the US, Ambex combines innovative American design with expert Turkish metalworking and skilled American labor, earning increasing recognition in the industry over the past three decades.

WHY IT MAKES SENSE FOR YOUR ROASTERY
With a batch capacity of 33 lbs and up to four roasts an hour, the Ambex YM-15 is one of the company's most popular roasters, with a solid list of features:

Digitally controlled bean and exhaust probes for accurate roasting
Independent roasting and cooling systems
Extremely efficient impinged jet gas burners
Stainless steel drum, mantle, and cooler

THE STORY
The seller purchased this cherry red roaster brand new in 2006, where it serviced a growing roastery for almost 20 years! It first cut its teeth by roasting 3 hours a week but then expanded to roasting 6 hours a day, 3 days a week.

Now the seller is moving into a bigger roaster, building on the firm foundation laid by this hard-working machine.

NOTE
The seller assures that the unit operates smoothly; however, potential buyers should be aware that the agitator/cooler combo motor was replaced two years ago. The original motor was not retained, so while the agitator arms move freely, they require manual operation instead of being powered. Interestingly, this design modification allows the agitator arms to remain cool, facilitating faster cooling of the beans than the original setup.

Located in the Midwest USA, it's powered by 110-120v and runs on propane. It's still commissioned and available for an in-person inspection and test roast for interested buyers.

FAQ

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.
